From the source
Real Madrid are reportedly considering another move for Riccardo Calafiori after previously being linked with the Arsenal defender during the summer transfer window. A potential transfer would have reunited the Italian with Jose Mourinho, following their time together at AS Roma, but the move never materialised.
Arsenal were not interested in allowing Calafiori to leave, while the defender himself did not push the club to sanction a transfer. Madrid subsequently turned their attention to Marc Cucurella of Chelsea as they continued exploring ways to strengthen their defensive options.
Calafiori has remained an important figure at the Emirates and continues to demonstrate his quality whenever he takes to the pitch. The Italian has established himself as Arsenal’s first-choice left-back and has produced consistently impressive performances over the last few seasons.
