Josko Gvardiol is one of the brightest young defenders in Europe right now. The Croatian has been mighty impressive in the World Cup for the national team as well. And his performance had an important part to play in the 2018 finalists reaching the group stage this time around.
Chelsea have been strongly linked with signing him, but there hasn’t been any formal negotiation with RB Leipzig as of yet.

“Real Madrid is the biggest club in the world, so who knows… maybe one day I can play there. I would like to, yes,” said Josko Gvardiol when asked about potentially playing for Real Madrid one day.
“Luka doesn’t have to tell me anything about Real Madrid, it’s not necessary. I already know everything, I know it’s the biggest club in the world and how important it is to be linked to a team like that,” explained the youngster.
The release clause in his contract with the German side is not valued at €45 million. And unlike the transfer for Christopher Nkunku, this one hasn’t been completed by Chelsea yet. Several clubs are keeping tabs on him and it remains an open race so far.
