A Brazilian on Real Madrid's radar
Real Madrid never makes a move by chance; the club scours the footballing world with a jeweler’s precision. In recent weeks, it's Wesley França, Roma’s dynamic wing-back, who has caught the eye at Valdebebas. After dazzling at Flamengo, the 22-year-old Brazilian made his Serie A debut and has already netted three goals in fourteen matches—an impressive calling card of pure efficiency. “I left my family, my sunshine, to learn how to defend in a new way,” he recently confessed to La Gazzetta’s microphone; Madrid took note.
His relentless runs and ability to switch from a back four to a back three without losing balance evoke memories of Marcelo, but with Carvajal’s instincts. Dani, now 33, senses his cycle is nearing its end; Wesley, meanwhile, is eager to start his own. The Blancos, who had already clocked him during the 2022 Club World Cup, see him as the perfect fit for a position that has become crucial amid constant squad rotations.
But Los Blancos are no longer alone at the top: Barça, alerted by the same scouts, is watching closely for any slip-up. A Brazilian civil war is brewing, and the winner could well be the one who persuades Roma to part with their gem before his price skyrockets.
