Millions rain down for Fede Valverde, huge offer, Real Madrid opens the doors for him

The crisis Madrid is going through sparks the interest of other teams, which can fish at Bernabéu more easily

Fede Valverde is one of the most beloved players among Real Madrid fans and one of the most respected inside the white locker room. His growth in recent years has been so great that he has gone from being a rotation piece to becoming an undisputed starter in the best team in the world. His powerful stride, his devastating long-range shot, and his unwavering commitment have turned him into a natural leader of the Madridist project.

However, despite everything he should contribute on the field, this season he is showing his most lackluster version. Since Xabi Alonso took charge of the team, Fede Valverde hasn't managed to find his place or the influence he had in previous stages. That disconnection is reflected in a striking statistic: he still hasn't managed to open his goal tally, something unusual for a player of his profile.

Beyond the numbers, what really worries the board is his alleged tense relationship with Xabi Alonso. According to media outlets such as COPE, Fede Valverde is part of the group of players who don't fully trust the Basque coach. The Uruguayan has always been known for his professionalism, but the lack of harmony with the new coach could be affecting his performance.

A big offer arrives for Fede Valverde

Amid this tense atmosphere, Manchester United has taken the opportunity to make a strong move in the operation. The English team, in need of a leader to rebuild their midfield, has set its sights on Fede Valverde and is willing to make a major financial effort to take him from Bernabéu. According to the first leaks, those at Old Trafford plan to present an offer that would exceed €120 million.

If confirmed, the proposal would place Fede Valverde among the most expensive transfers in Real Madrid's history. Although it may seem unthinkable to let go of such a beloved and important player in the locker room, the truth is that the sporting situation forces the club not to rule out any scenario. Fede is captain, symbol, and soul of the project, but he is also an asset of enormous value at a time of collective doubts.

Real Madrid is considering it

For now, the white club is keeping cautious and considers that it's too soon to make a final decision. Florentino Pérez knows that Fede Valverde embodies Real Madrid's competitive spirit, but he is also aware that the team needs an organizing midfielder. A multi-million euro sale like the Uruguayan's could facilitate the signing of that much-desired profile.

There won't be any drastic moves in January, but Fede Valverde's future will be determined by what happens until the end of the season. If he regains his best form, the club will close the door without hesitation. However, if the negative feelings persist and the tension with Xabi Alonso doesn't dissipate, his departure could stop being madness and become a strategic decision.
