Team Talk, a British media outlet, reported on the 29th (Korea Standard Time) 'Fan the Penn has been reportedly on the list of candidates for recruitment by Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti'
Van der Penn, born in 2001, left Wolfsburg (Germany) and joined Tottenham through the summer 2023 transfer window. His transfer fee was £43 million. There was no time for adjustment. Van der Penn was paired with Christian Romero to defend Tottenham's back door. There was an injury break, but he played as Tottenham's main centre-back. At the end of the season, he changed his position to left fullback due to a line injury in the defensive line. Van der Penn scored three goals in 27 English Premier League (EPL) matches in the 2023-2024 season. It was selected as the "Player of the Year" by fans. He also played in nine league games this season.

Real Madrid are interested in Romero as well as Van der Penn. It will be a huge shock to see Tottenham break up with one centre-back. Tottenham are currently considering adding a centre-back option'
