After completing four signings earlier this summer, Real Madrid has shifted its focus to offloading players in recent weeks. Several first-team members are at risk of being sold during the current transfer window, and one of the players under consideration is Brahim Diaz.
Since returning from AC Milan three years ago, Brahim has been a valuable squad member for Real Madrid. However, with the recent signing of Bernardo Silva and the return of Endrick Felipe from Lyon, there is a strong possibility that he may fall down the pecking order under Jose Mourinho. If that occurs, it could lead to a transfer.

Brahim is ready to depart if Real Madrid indicates that he is no longer in their plans, which aligns with Juventus’s desires for the upcoming weeks. According to reports from Italian sources (via MD), the Serie A club has highlighted the Moroccan international as a primary target per the request of head coach Luciano Spalletti.
Brahim aims to stay, but a sale may be unavoidable
Currently, Brahim is focusing on gearing up for pre-season with Real Madrid, where Mourinho will evaluate his performance. If it’s determined that he is a part of the plans for the 2026-27 season, the possibility of a summer transfer will be eliminated.
However, any uncertainty may lean towards a transfer. His contract with Real Madrid is set to expire at the end of next season, making this an ideal time for the club to profit from his departure rather than lose him for free.

It will be intriguing to observe how Brahim’s situation unfolds in the coming weeks. No firm decisions will be made until Mourinho assesses his role in the first team, meaning Juventus will need to be patient.
