Real Madrid Favorites to Sign Slotterbeck

Real Madrid is reportedly the favorite to sign Nico Slotterbeck, the defender from Borussia Dortmund. Dortmund's management is trying to keep him, offering a new five-year contract with increased earnings, but the player is said to be asking for more money than the team is offering. According to the newspaper “Bild”, Real Madrid has already begun contacts with Slotterbeck's agent and is willing to offer €50 million to acquire his rights, either immediately or at the end of the season. Slotterbeck is considered one of the best defenders in the Bundesliga and could be a significant addition to Real Madrid's squad. Bayern Munich has also expressed interest in the player, but Real seems to have the upper hand.
