Arsenal defender Saliba: Real Madrid interest 'tempting'

Arsenal defender Willian Saliba admits Real Madrid's interest has been "tempting".

Saliba penned a new contract with Arsenal earlier this year after months of speculation linking him with Real Madrid.

He told Telefoot: “Of course it’s tempting when a club like that gives you a little push, but for me, it was about staying at Arsenal.

"First, winning trophies, before thinking about anything else.

"We won’t see the Bondy connection with Kylian at Real Madrid? The Bondy connection is with the French national team for now..."

Indeed, both Saliba and Real Madrid striker Kylian Mbappe are former junior players with Bondy.0
