Real Madrid are interested in buying Real Sociedad defender Inigo Martinez with reports believing that the two clubs weren't just talking about the loan of Casemiro.
The Spanish giants hope that this 22 year old will be able to form a good partnership at the heart of the defence and will be a cornerstone of the team for many years as well.
They also believe that he will be a long term replacement for Portuguese defender Pepe who will enter his last stages of his career over the next 3 or 4 seasons.
Martinez fits the new Madrid transfer plan perfectly as he is young local talent just like with the transfers of Asier Illarramendi and Isco during the Summer.
