And RMC Sport says contact has been established with Saliba's camp and made it clear a bid will be made to Arsenal at the end of the season.
Real are convinced by Saliba's talent and potential - and see him as a future defensive leader.
The approach was met with a "positive response" from the player's representatives, with Saliba currently tied to an Arsenal contract until 2027.
