With less than 24 hours remaining in the winter transfer window, Real Madrid is not planning any major moves. It has been a relatively uneventful month for Los Blancos, having only completed one transaction: the loan of Endrick Felipe to Lyon.
Yet, there is still opportunity for activity. While no new signings are expected, some players might leave the Bernabeu before the window shuts, with Brahim Diaz being a potential candidate.

Brahim, who was instrumental in Sunday’s match against Rayo Vallecano, has seen his profile rise recently due to strong performances in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. Newcastle United is reportedly among the clubs interested in bringing him back to the Premier League before the winter transfer window closes, according to CaughtOffside.

Newcastle is reportedly in discussions with Brahim’s representatives regarding a potential transfer from Real Madrid. Additionally, Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur have expressed interest in the forward, who could be available for around €60 million.

More Likely to Depart in the Summer
It is improbable that Real Madrid will part with Brahim on Monday, as he is expected to play a crucial role in the upcoming second half of the season. However, a sale might be entertained during the summer, especially with Nico Paz likely returning to the Bernabeu from Como.
As Brahim’s position could be jeopardized upon Paz’s return and his market value remains high, it would be prudent for the club to consider selling him. Newcastle’s interest is expected to persist, making the next few months appealing for possible developments.
