Real Madrid makes many people dream. While Florentino Pérez’s club tries to rebuild with new players, the newspaper L’Équipe reveals the great dream of a player from Olympique Lyonnais in France.
There are currently four French players at Real Madrid. Having become the oldest French player in the Madrid squad since Karim Benzema’s departure in 2022, Ferland Mendy has seen the arrival of his compatriots such as Eduardo Camavinga (from Rennes), Aurélien Tchouaméni (AS Monaco), and recently Kylian Mbappé (Paris Saint-Germain). Since the relationship between French players and the greatest club in the world has generally been positive for years, other players dream of wearing the white jersey.
Rayan Cherki and his dream of Real Madrid
For weeks, the name of William Saliba (currently indispensable at Arsenal) has been mentioned to strengthen Madrid’s defence. For now, this option, supported by Antonio Rudiger, is far from being realised. This Friday, the French newspaper L’Équipe mentions the name of Rayan Cherki with Real Madrid. Trained at OL, the young 21-year-old attacking midfielder and winger, who has not yet been called up to the senior French team despite his excellent start to the season, is about to leave Ligue 1.
Courted by Algeria and Italy, who want to snatch him from the hands of the French who do not give him much importance, Rayan Cherki is very likely to leave his training club in January. In great financial difficulty, Olympique Lyonnais must sell many players to avoid relegation to Ligue 2 next season. While clubs like Liverpool and PSG are reportedly tracking the young French international with the Espoirs team, L’Équipe indicates that Cherki’s greatest dream is to play for Real Madrid.
The dream is big, even if it is not certain to be realised soon. Valued at 25 million euros, the young player remains a profile that Real Madrid already possesses. With Brahim Diaz and Arda Güler struggling to get playing time despite their talent and versatility, it is hard to see the Madrid leaders fulfilling the dream of young Rayan Cherki. He can still continue to cling to this immense desire by pursuing a successful career.
