Euro giants would be willing to pay €35-40 million for Chelsea key star
According to reports, Real Madrid has shown interest in acquiring Reece James, the talented Chelsea defender. At just 23 years old, James has already established himself as one of the Premier League’s top full-backs, making him an attractive prospect for the Spanish giants.
Real Madrid is in search of a quality long-term replacement for their current right-back, Dani Carvajal, and James has emerged as a potential option. Scouts from the Madrid club have singled out the English international as their preferred target. However, it remains to be seen whether Real Madrid will make a formal offer for James at the conclusion of the season.
Reece James was recently named the captain of Chelsea Football Club, indicating his importance within the team. As a lifelong Chelsea fan, it is unlikely that James would actively seek a departure from the club. Furthermore, he is a key figure in Mauricio Pochettino’s dressing room, further diminishing the likelihood of him pushing for an exit.
Estadio Deportivo’s report suggests that Real Madrid would be willing to spend approximately €35-40 million on the transfer, highlighting their interest in securing James’s services.

Reece James is widely recognized as a remarkable talent, and it is highly improbable that Chelsea would be willing to part ways with him for the reported transfer fee. Even if the club does entertain the idea of selling the player, they would undoubtedly demand a significant sum from Real Madrid. It can be reasonably assumed that any potential transfer would require a substantial financial commitment from the Spanish giants.
The unfolding of this situation in the coming months promises to be intriguing. The negotiations and discussions between the two clubs will shed light on whether Real Madrid is prepared to make a considerable investment to secure James’s services, or if Chelsea will stand firm in their desire to retain their prized asset.
