As the winter transfer window approaches, Real Madrid is seriously considering strengthening its squad further. The Spanish giants have set their sights on central defender Abdukodir Khusanov, who currently plays for Manchester City. This was reported by the publication Fichajes.net.
According to the source, the "royal club" is exploring the option of adding the Uzbek player to their roster on loan rather than a full transfer. This approach aligns perfectly with Madrid's strategy: reinforcing the defensive line without major financial expenditure while addressing issues arising during the season in a timely manner.
Currently, the situation with defenders at Real Madrid is complicated. Injuries, a packed schedule, and limited rotation options have led to challenges in certain matches. From this perspective, Khusanov’s name is being considered as an appealing option both from a sporting and tactical standpoint. His physical readiness, aerial dominance, and positional awareness meet the requirements of Real Madrid's coaching staff.
Notably, there have been previous transfer rumors surrounding the Uzbek defender. Specifically, there were speculations that he might join Liverpool.
For reference, Abdukodir Khusanov’s current contract with the "Citizens" is valid until the summer of 2029. This means that Manchester City remains a key party in deciding his future. As a result, the matter is expected to gain even more intrigue during the winter transfer window.
