Real Madrid are considering a move to sign Fabian Ruiz from Napoli on a free transfer next summer, with Arsenal also interested in the midfielder.
The Azzurri CM is into the final 12 months of his playing deal at present, and has been linked with the exit door in recent windows.
The Gunners have been linked with a move to sign the Spanish star in recent months, with his current contract situation likely to have made us consider a bargain bid for his signature, but we appear to have prioritised alternative signings instead.
That isn’t to say we are ready to overlook Ruiz in future however, but we could now be set to face strong competition from Real Madrid, who are said to be ‘interested’ in his potential free transfer next summer.
Real Madrid are interested in signing Fabián Ruiz as free agent in summer 2023. Of course, deal depends on what happens with Napoli in August. ⚪️🇪🇸 #RealMadrid
Ancelotti remains big fan of Fabián as he signed him at Napoli. Spanish, talented – Real will be exploring this idea. pic.twitter.com/IMCG1ksi4C

We are yet to add a CM to our squad in the current window, and that could have something to do with both targets Youri Tielemans and Ruiz being free agents next summer.
Should we consider moving got Ruiz before next summer to avoid a transfer tussle with the Spanish giants?

As long as madrid are also interested the player will see out his contract so he can easily make a move to madrid and snub us even if we are willing to buy him out this summer.Heartbroken? not!!!
What position is Vieira supposed to be playing?
Presumably back-up for ode short-term but could play with him in a 4-3-3 or the wings further down the line when he’s established.
Didn’t see the part where the author said we hadn’t signed a cm obviously we have but we do seem to be in the market for 1 more.
Yes we should go ahead and seal a cut price deal for Fabian Ruiz.
A proven campaigner who would be a quality addition to the squad as opposed to Mello, herd he would relish the chance to play for a top club in the premier league.
My top pick for this position is Savic, but will only come at a hefty price
