Real Madrid could re-ignite interest in Chelsea star following injury comeback (Details)

Real Madrid continues to search for a new long-term right-back, considering the age of their current options, Dani Carvajal and Lucas Vazquez, both 32 years old.

Chelsea’s Reece James has been linked with Real Madrid as a potential candidate for the position. At 24 years old, he could provide a long-term solution for the club.

James recently returned from a five-month injury layoff and made an impact, providing an assist in Chelsea’s win over Nottingham Forest.

Real Madrid has reportedly admired James for a while but is unlikely to make a move this summer, as right-back isn’t a top priority. However, if James can stay fit and perform well over the next year, Real Madrid may consider a move in 2025.

Despite concerns about his injury record, James could be an excellent addition for Real Madrid and potentially their best option at right-back if he can stay healthy. His performance will likely determine the club’s interest in pursuing him in the future.
