A bolt fell on Tottenham. Real Madrid is aiming to recruit Mickey van der Penn (Tottenham).

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.

Team Talk 'Real Madrid recruited interesting strikers such as Kylian Mbappe and Endrick in the transfer window last summer. However, he has now allowed 29 goals in 26 games after deciding not to invest in centre-backs amid injuries to Eder Militão and David Alaba. It was a mistake. Citing a report by Spanish media Lillevo, the media outlet said 'Real Madrid has begun to draw up a list with the aim of strengthening its defense in the winter transfer market next January. Van der Penn is one of Real Madrid's top goals. Castello Rükeva (Leifich) is also on the list. Real Madrid are expected to hold a meeting in the coming weeks to decide who to put first. A new centre-back is a top priority' he added.

Meanwhile, Van der Penn is under contract with Tottenham until 2029. Team Talk is 'Tottenham has no intention of selling the van der Penn in January 2025. 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'
