Arsenal value Riccardo Calafiori in excess of €100m (£83.8m) amid transfer interest from Real Madrid.
Real Madrid are monitoring Calafiori ahead of a potential summer move, as Jose Mourinho looks to bolster his defensive options.
The Italy international has evolved into one of the most unique defenders in Europe, offering a marauding presence from left-back for Arsenal. Calafiori can also operate at centre-back, and Real Madrid have earmarked him as a potential arrival.
Calafiori has started the season in fine form, starting all seven Premier League games and scoring once and providing two assists. Among Premier League full-backs, Calafiori ranks second for Expected Goals and Assists.
Arsenal have no desire to sell the defender and Caught Offside are reporting that the Gunners will demand a world-record fee for a defender to discuss a deal. Arsenal value Calafiori at over €100m, and are in a strong position with the 24-year-old contracted until 2029.
