It could be said that Kieran Tierney was at the right time, in the right place. More than being, “shine”, as it advances 90min. According to the English medium, Real Madrid, alerted to his growing qualities and projection (24 years old), sent Juni Calafat himself to check it out first-hand at the Emirates Stadium. Two months, January and February, in which the Scottish left-back has ended up far exceeding the cut of the white scout, who has already brought Rodrygo or Vinicius and who is already moving for the Monaco midfielder, Aurélien Tchouaméni.
But in between, Tierney has quietly broken in. As reported by the aforementioned source, Bukayo Saka amazed Calafat, but the man born on the Isle of Man ended up being the one that surprised him the most. In addition to his tactical intelligence and technical quality, his versatility is valued, since it can also act as a central. A 2×1 precisely for the positions that the white team seeks to fill before the departure of Marcelo and that of Jesús Vallejo and the doubts about what to do with Miguel Gutiérrez or Fran García, for whom the white team maintains 50% of its federative rights.
Bale’s agent, in between
Another bridge to his possible signing is that of his representation agency, ICM Stellar Sports. It won’t sound familiar to most because of the name, but it will because it belongs to Bale’s agent, Jonathan Barnett, with whom, despite his disagreements, Real Madrid maintains a good relationship. Eduardo Camavinga, in his represented portfolio, is the latest example of the ties that unite both parties and that he also owns Andriy Gudjohnsen, the son of the former Barcelona player, Eidur, and who plays for Real Madrid Castilla, as evidence.
