Real Madrid have already set their sights on the transfer market. After a season full of ups and downs, the club is clear that they need to reinforce several key positions to fight for titles in the second half of the season. The injuries of Éder Militão and Dani Carvajal have weakened the defense, while the midfield is not meeting expectations.
Injuries Have Affected the Defense
The absences of Militão and Carvajal have been a hard blow for Carlo Ancelotti's team. Both players are key players in Madrid's defensive system, and their absence has forced the Italian coach to improvise with other options.
Although Antonio Rüdiger and David Alaba have delivered, it cannot be denied that the defensive performance has not been the same without their starters.
The situation in the midfield
Another area that worries fans and experts alike is the midfield. Although players like Luka Modric are still important players, the renovation of this area is becoming more and more urgent.
Aurélien Tchouaméni, who arrived with high expectations, is not performing as expected. His lack of consistency has raised doubts about his ability to anchor the midfield, and many point to him as one of the players who could improve.
Casemiro's name on the table
Tomás Roncero , deputy director of the newspaper As and a well-known Real Madrid fan, has launched a proposal that has caused a stir. In his latest intervention, Roncero asked Florentino Pérez to re-sign Casemiro, who left Madrid in 2022 to join Manchester United.
The Brazilian, known for his character and strength in midfield, is seen by many Real Madrid fans as the missing piece to regain control in that area.
Florentino does not consider Casemiro's return
Despite Roncero's insistence and the wishes of several fans, the club's reply is clear: Florentino Pérez does not contemplate the return of Casemiro.
The Real Madrid president has other objectives in mind to strengthen the midfield, but Casemiro is not a viable option at the moment. transfer a player of his caliber would entail a high financial cost and a change of direction in the club's transfer policy.
Rodrygo Goes, the one pointed out
Amidst these debates, the figure of Rodrygo Goes has also emerged. The Brazilian has shown inconsistent performances, and some media outlets claim that he is being singled out for his ups and downs. Although his departure has not been mentioned, Rodrygo's future could be at risk if he does not improve his performance in the remainder of the season.
