Leverkusen's Grimaldo claims Madrid "the team everyone wants to play for"

Alejandro Grimaldo is the man of the moment in the Bundesliga. The Bayern Leverkusen full-back is the highest scoring player in his position in the big leagues, which is why there is talk of teams in the next level up. The Spanish player has just been called up by the Spanish national team, but he is not closing the door on any team. Not even Real Madrid, despite having come out of 'La Masia'.
"Real Madrid is one of the best teams in the world, if not the best, and it's a team every player wants to go to." the Spanish international told 'OK Diario', who is nevertheless clear that he is "at Leverkusen". "I've been here for three months and everything is going great. I have to keep working and we'll see what happens in the future," he added.
Grimaldo, who came out of Barcelona's youth academy, understands that despite the high level he has shown, he has not been called up: "In the end they have the position covered, they have very good players and teams look for positions that are less well covered. I understand that perfectly. I've gone to Bayer and I'm very happy, I'm enjoying an incredible moment and we have to continue".
Grimaldo made his breakthrough at Benfica, and this summer he decided to make the leap to the Bundesliga: "The club and Xabi Alonso bet very strongly on me. When Xabi calls you and he insists that you are going to make a good team, that he trusts you, it's important. The club bet a lot on me and told me that they were going to bring in good players. And that's how it has been. I'm very happy with the decision I've made".
