Portuguese midfielder Rúben Neves, aged 28, who signed a three-year contract with Al Hilal in 2023, might become a target for Real Madrid in the following year if he chooses not to extend his tenure in Saudi Arabia. Real Madrid is in need of a midfield controller, particularly following the retirement of Toni Kroos and the departure of Luka Modrić. Neves has demonstrated his skill at the Club World Cup, notably by scoring a penalty in a draw against Madrid and performing exceptionally in a win over Manchester City. His passing prowess continues to rank among the best, positioning him as an ideal candidate to fill the gap left by Kroos and Modrić. Neves' transfer to Saudi Arabia from Wolverhampton Wanderers involved a fee of €55.00 million, and his current market value, according to Transfermarkt, stands at €25.00 million.
