Madrid have signed Dean Huijsen for £50m this summer and are about to complete a deal for teen sensation Franco Mastantuono.
That means los Blancos would like to reduce the upfront fee in a deal for Mac Allister in any way they can.
And according to a new report in Fichajes, the Spanish capital club are willing to add a former Liverpool favourite to the equation in order to get a move for Mac Allister over the line.
Arda Guler, 20, was only ever a peripheral figure under Carlo Ancelotti and looked set for an increased role under Alonso. The Turkey international is under contract at the Bernabeu until 2029 having signed from Fenerbahce in 2023.
He has been a long-term Liverpool target with reports speculating he could quit Madrid for Anfield coming out over the last year or so. Guler will likely have to compete with Mastantuono for game time and is an intriguing option if made available.
He is a creative left-footed player who can feature either right wing or else attacking midfield. Mohamed Salah is a fixture on the right for Arne Slot while Florian Wirtz is expected to take over playmaking duties.
