Real Madrid 'eyeing summer deal for Nordi Mukiele'

Real Madrid are reportedly interested in signing RB Leipzig defender Nordi Mukiele.

The 23-year-old has been in impressive form for his German club during the 2021-22 campaign, scoring twice and providing one assist in 11 appearances in all competitions.

A recent report claimed that Manchester United were interested in the defender, as the Red Devils look to sign competition for Aaron Wan-Bissaka at right-back.

However, according to Fichajes, there is also firm interest from Real Madrid, with the Spanish giants emerging as a leading contender for his signature.

Mukiele has made 119 appearances for his German club since arriving from Montpellier in 2018, contributing 10 goals and seven assists in the process.

The France international has largely played as a right-back for Leipzig this season but is also capable of operating as a right-sided midfielder.
