Real Madrid keen on Willian Pacho
Real Madrid’s interest in Ecuadorian defender Willian Pacho highlights their intent to strengthen their backline amid ongoing injury concerns. The 23-year-old, who joined PSG this summer from Eintracht Frankfurt for €40 million, has quickly established himself as a key figure in the Parisian defence. With over 1,000 minutes across 14 appearances this season, his form has caught the eye of Europe’s elite.
The reigning La Liga champions are particularly eager to reinforce their defensive ranks after losing both David Alaba and Eder Militao to long-term knee injuries. Pacho’s blend of physicality, composure, and ability to contribute in possession makes him an appealing candidate. Additionally, his age and potential fit Real Madrid’s strategy of securing players who can contribute both immediately and in the long term.
However, prying Pacho away from PSG won’t be easy. The Ligue 1 giants would demand a premium fee, given his rising stock and the €40 million investment they made just months ago. While Real Madrid has alternatives like Murillo, Pacho’s proven adaptability to top-level football makes him a standout choice. A potential move next summer could be a saga to watch, especially if PSG opens the door for negotiations.
