Real Madrid changes transfer stance, Alonso is in trouble

The four majors of the 2024/25 season were empty, allowing Real Madrid to react quickly this summer, and even before the season officially ended, they had already waved their checks and threw out more than 100 million euros.

Head coach Xavi Alonso originally planned to take office before taking office after the Club World Cup, leaving him with plenty of preparation time, but time does not wait for anyone. As Ancelotti went to Brazil, the Basque young coach had to hurry to take over the coaching spike.

Fortunately, Lafayette changed his stinginess in the previous few transfer windows and signed Arnold, Wyson and Alvaro Carreras one after another, allowing Alonso to lead the team to participate in the Club World Cup held in the United States, and he had more or less confidence.

But the lack of control in the midfield is still the biggest problem for Real Madrid now. Although Alonso claimed in his comments that it would allow Bellingham to retreat to a deeper position to resolve, he is believed to still hope Real Madrid will sign a new midfielder.

Previously, Real Madrid had been associated with several midfielders, including Tijani Regindes, Zubimendi and Angelo Stiller. However, according to the latest statement by Spanish media Cadena SER, the club's senior management believes that the team's midfielder already has sufficient staff and there is no need to spend money to increase investment.

Therefore, although Real Madrid is still looking for new midfield options in the market, there is not much urgency and they have ruled out the possibility of investing huge sums in Enzo, McAllister or Rodri.

Club World Cup is likely to be used as a test. If the current midfield combination does not work, it is possible to change the transfer position. Otherwise, Real Madrid will continue to evaluate the choice of this position, but will not clearly decide to add new personnel.

This will put Alonso in trouble. It is obvious that the Basques are very eager to lead the team to achieve good results in the Club World Cup, otherwise a bad start in a super giant like Real Madrid will immediately face huge pressure.

However, the change in the position of Real Madrid's senior executives in the transfer market cannot bring Alonso the midfielders they need, which will undoubtedly affect his future deployment.
