Real Madrid Transfer News: Leeds United want Mariano
Real Madrid Transfer News: There have been rumours that Premier League club Leeds United is interested in signing Mariano Diaz. Defensa key reports that Real Madrid is unlikely to grant the 29-year-old a contract extension since he is not a key component of Carlo Ancelotti’s plans at Santiago Bernabeu.
The player’s contract is set to expire on June 30, and he has several suitors. However, his current salary at the Spanish club is €4.5 million per season, making it unlikely that any bidder save Leeds United would be able to meet his economic demands.
His results have not been commensurate with his high salary. If Leeds is willing to take a chance on him, remains to be seen. The Hammers have also been linked to the 29-year-old’s services.
Leeds could need additional talent in the last third, and if Mariano can find his form again, he may be a good choice for them. However, at age 29, the Real Madrid forward shows no signs of improving. Leeds should try to spend their money on a younger, more promising player. Mariano can turn out to be a risky investment and an unimpressive acquisition.
With players like Patrick Bamford underwhelming this season, the Whites will need to reinvigorate their offensive unit. They need to prioritize bringing in a player who can consistently score goals.

At Real Madrid, Mariano has had trouble getting playing time. So, he’ll look for a team where he can earn regular playing time. That’s something Leeds United can provide him. The player will likely be thrilled by the prospect of a transfer to the Premier League.
Physically and technically, he is more than capable of competing at the highest levels of English football. Whether or not he will be able to swiftly adjust to the league and make an early impact at Elland Road remains to be seen.
Furthermore, Leeds United’s Premier League survival is still a long way off. And if they want to continue attracting players like Mariano, they’ll need to maintain their standing as a premier club. There is little chance of the Real Madrid forward joining the Championship next season.
