“We’ll try everything possible to sign this guy, He showed what we’ve not seen before”: Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti names ONE Arsenal’s player who was their nightmare, ready to sign him by all means. CARLO IS READY TO SIGN ONE ARSENAL PLAYER AT ALL COSTS
“We’ll Try Everything Possible to Sign This Guy” – Ancelotti Names ONE Arsenal Star Who Gave Real Madrid a Nightmare Performance
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has never been one to hand out praise lightly — but after a behind-closed-doors friendly between Real Madrid and Arsenal, the legendary coach has made a declaration that’s now sending the transfer rumor mill into overdrive.
During his post-match press conference, Ancelotti was asked about standout performers on the pitch — and without hesitation, he pointed to one Arsenal player who tormented his side and left a lasting impression.
“We’ll try everything possible to sign this guy,” Ancelotti said firmly. “He showed us something we’ve not seen before. His movement, his intelligence, the way he controls the game — he was a nightmare for us.”
And no — it wasn’t Saka. It wasn’t Ødegaard. It wasn’t Gabriel Jesus.
The man in question? William Saliba.
Saliba: Real Madrid’s New Obsession
According to Ancelotti, Saliba’s defensive dominance and calmness on the ball were unmatched throughout the match — even against the likes of Vinícius Jr. and Rodrygo.
“He reads the game like he’s 35,” Ancelotti added. “You press him, and he escapes. You sit off, and he builds play. I’ve coached the best — and Saliba is right there.”
A Galáctico in the Making?
Sources close to Madrid’s camp have already hinted that Florentino Pérez is prepared to back Ancelotti’s wish — even if it means splashing big money to lure Saliba away from Arsenal.
With Antonio Rüdiger aging, and questions about long-term replacements for Madrid’s backline, Saliba is now at the top of Los Blancos’ wishlist.
Arsenal Fans React
“Back off, Ancelotti. He’s OUR rock!”
“Saliba to Madrid? Not happening – we’re building around him.”
“When Real Madrid wants your player, you know he’s world-class.”
Mikel Arteta’s Response?
While Arteta hasn’t responded publicly yet, sources say Arsenal have no intention of selling, and are planning to offer Saliba a bumper new deal to ensure he remains the defensive pillar at the Emirates for years to come.
The Verdict
Carlo Ancelotti has made it clear: William Saliba is Real Madrid’s dream signing.
But Arsenal fans will be praying it stays just that — a dream.
Because when Real Madrid comes calling… it’s never casual.
