Real Madrid, which failed to challenge for the European top, will make a massive recruitment.
'Defending Champions'Real Madrid wrapped up their European Champions League journey this season. Real Madrid lost 1-2 to Arsenal in the second leg of the quarterfinals of the 2024-2025 European Champions League at Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid, Spain, on the morning of the 17th (Korea time). Real Madrid, which suffered a 0-3 defeat in the first away match on the 9th, experienced a humiliating 1-5 total defeat in the first and second games. Real Madrid, the most winning team (15 times) and last season's champion, was stopped by Arsenal. Real Madrid failed to advance to the semi-finals for the first time in five years.
Real Madrid, which was considered to have built a perfect power last summer by recruiting Kylian Mbappe, one of the world's best strikers, has been unstable all season. In particular, the defense collapsed. Eder Militão, Dani Carvajal and David Alaba were all out for the season, while Antonio Rudiger also suffered frequent injuries. Raul Asensio, a center back from the youth, made a surprise appearance and put out the urgent fire, but reinforcement of the defense is essential for rebounding next season.
On the 19th, Foot Mercato unveiled a blueprint for Real Madrid's reinforcement next season. Manager Carlo Ancelotti said, `We must recruit a central defender and a right full-back for the next season," he said. The right fullback has the answer. Liverpool's Sunggol Strent Alexander-Arnold will join as a free agent unless something unexpected happens.
Bournemouth's Dean Subsun is the top centre-back. Haesun plays as a key defender for Bournemouth and is receiving love calls from big clubs. The lower line, which is considered to have both fast feet and build-up ability, is also expanding its position in the Spanish national team, which is perfect for Real Madrid. His buyout is known for 60 million euros. In the midfield, Martin Subimendi of Real Sociedad is being discussed. Real Madrid, who are playing the season without a replacement for Toni Kroos, want Subimendi. Subimendi is likely to go to Arsenal, and in order to change this situation, Real Sociedad has to pay 60 million euros.
In addition, Real Madrid needs to reinforce its front-line striker and left full-back, and Real Madrid plans to focus on weak positions immediately rather than investing a huge amount of money. This is because it costs a lot of money to reinforce the level of striker and left full-back that Real Madrid wants.
