Real Madrid and Manchester United to battle for highly rated midfielder – Reports
Real Madrid and Manchester United are reportedly set to go head-to-head in the race to sign Dinamo Zagreb’s rising star Martín Baturina, according to Fichajes. The 21-year-old Croatian midfielder has been making waves in the 2024/25 season with five assists in seven matches across competitions, drawing the attention of Europe’s elite clubs.
A combination of technical skill, vision, and versatility across various midfield roles has made the youngster one of the most sought-after talents.
Real Madrid and Croatian football legend Luka Modric has been vocal in his praise for Baturina and has recommended the signing to Los Blancos. With Modric entering the latter stages of his career, the club view Baturina as a potential long-term replacement. With injuries piling up, Real Madrid are in urgent need of fresh legs in their midfield, and Modric’s backing could provide the impetus for them to act swiftly in securing the midfielder’s signature.
United, however, are also firmly in the mix. The Red Devils are searching for a creative midfielder who can complement Bruno Fernandes, and Baturina fits the profile.
Although Modric’s influence could prove pivotal in steering Baturina towards the Santiago Bernabeu, Manchester United would present a strong threat to Los Blancos’ ambitions.
Manchester United-linked midfielder offers himself to Real Madrid – Reports
French midfielder Adrien Rabiot, who has been linked with Manchester United in the past, has offered his services to Real Madrid, according to Defensa Central (via The Hard Tackle). Rabiot is currently a free agent following the expiration of his contract with Juventus earlier this summer.
While the 2022 FIFA World Cup finalist was heavily rumored to be on Manchester United’s radar, a recent report by Football Insider stated that the Premier League club is unlikely to make a move for the Frenchman.
Madrid, on the other hand, could sign Rabiot to bolster their midfield after a spree of injuries. The 29-year-old brings significant experience, having played for top clubs like Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus. With Madrid competing for multiple trophies this season, Rabiot could provide the depth and quality they need in the center of the park.
Although Rabiot is reportedly demanding high wages, Los Blancos have the financial resources to meet his requirements.
