Premier League Midfielder Eyes Return to Real Madrid

Real Madrid is expected to pursue a new midfielder next year. Their failure to sign anyone during the recent summer transfer window has caused issues, with Jose Mourinho's team struggling to maintain control during matches. This has prompted club officials to start planning for fresh signings.

Past Attempts and New Targets

The club previously tried to bring in Enzo Fernandez and Rodri, but were priced out of signing Fernandez, while Barcelona secured Rodri. Despite these setbacks, Real Madrid’s management is already eyeing other prospects, including a familiar name.

Chema Andres' Journey and Ambitions

In the summer of 2025, Chema Andres departed Real Madrid for Stuttgart. After a solid year in Germany, he moved to Brighton in the Premier League. He’s made a strong start there and recently shared with Diario AS that returning to the Bernabeu remains a dream, though it’s not something he’s actively pursuing right now.

Real Madrid? I hope to come back in the future, but I’m not thinking about it right now.

Challenges in Re-Signing Andres

If Real Madrid decides to bring Andres back, it won’t be a simple deal. The club lost all influence over his future when he transferred from Stuttgart to Brighton. Any move would require paying full price to Brighton, who are known for being tough negotiators with their key players.

For now, Real Madrid will keep monitoring Andres' progress at Brighton. Should he continue to improve, it wouldn’t be surprising if he appears on their list of targets for the next summer transfer window.
