As Real Madrid embark on a new era led by Xabi Alonso, the club will look to offload several players who are no longer needed moving forward.
By Real Madrid’s high standards, the 2024–25 season was a monumental failure. The club did not win a major trophy, conceded 84 goals and lost four Clásicos. Many of the team’s problems stemmed from an unbalanced squad that featured aging, injury-prone players.
Los Blancos have made it a priority this summer, then, to sign young, exciting talents in Dean Huijsen, Franco Mastantuono and Álvaro Carreras, as well as a proven winner in Trent Alexander-Arnold. The Spanish giants also bid farewell to Luka Modrić and Lucas Vázquez.
