Real Madrid has shown significant interest in Onuralp Çevikkan, a promising 18-year-old Turkish goalkeeper who currently plays for Trabzonspor. As reported by AS newspaper, scouts from the white club have closely followed his performance in the U-18 Turkish national team matches, highlighting his recent display against Spain. This monitoring reaffirms the strategy of the Madrid team to recruit young talents to strengthen its subsidiary, Castilla, and ensure a solid base for the future.
Çevikkan, who joined Trabzonspor last summer from Altınordu for 700,000 euros, is considered one of the most promising projects in Turkish football. Despite his youth and not having officially debuted with the first team, the goalkeeper has been called up several times during the past season, solidifying his position as the third goalkeeper in the squad.
Onuralp Çevikkan, on Real Madrid's Radar
Real Madrid aims to capitalize on Onuralp's potential, who has stood out for his goalkeeping interventions in international youth competitions. Serhat Pekmezci, a former scout from Fenerbahçe, has praised his potential: "Onuralp has extraordinary qualities. Trabzonspor signed him with a long-term vision, and his progression will be crucial for the club's future."
Although in 2023 Real Madrid had already offered 10 million euros for the player, Trabzonspor rejected the proposal, convinced that his value will grow over time. Now, with a new window of opportunities open, the Whites are carefully evaluating the next steps to incorporate Çevikkan, a talent that would fit into the ambitious project of renewing their youth academy.
