Real Madrid's monstrous strategy for the Mercato

Real Madrid's monstrous strategy for the Mercato

Faced with its incredible injury shortage, will Real Madrid recruit urgently from January? It's not trendy at the moment. According to the daily AS, the Merengue club has in mind to wait until next summer to make a move. Real Madrid has decided to focus on its cantera this season, with a very ambitious strategy starting in January. Defense, in a critical situation with only one central available (Rüdiger), another unused (Vallejo), and Tchouaméni repositioned, is the priority. The club does not plan to recruit this winter, but is banking on summer reinforcements, in particular thanks to three players free of contract: Alexander-Arnold, Tah and Davies.

Davies, Alexandre-Arnold, Tah and Wirtz this summer?

Alphonso Davies could join Madrid after his Bayern contract expires. Mendy's extension until 2027 could make Fran García transferable. Alexander-Arnold, the 26-year-old English right-back, is a strategic option to replace Carvajal, who suffered a serious injury. His attacking profile matches Madrid's philosophy, and his contract with Liverpool also expires in a few months. In defense, Real is also targeting Jonathan Tah, at the end of his lease with Leverkusen this summer. His imposing height (1.95 m) and his experience with Rüdiger in the German selection make him a potential defensive asset. Finally, the case of Florian Wirtz, the 21-year-old prodigy, is different. Under contract with Leverkusen until 2027, his transfer will require a substantial sum (around €130 million). A key player in Xabi Alonso's system, he could embody the future connection between the midfielder and the Madrid attack.
