Real Madrid will not stop once the Club World Cup kicks off in its quest to revamp the squad. Florentino Pérez is aware that the team, “tired” from having won everything, needs fresh faces hungry for titles. Furthermore, due to the nature of the game, it is necessary to make two quality signings to increase the quality of the squad. Therefore, once the World Cup is over, and with time to assess the needs of the squad and take into account the extra budget generated by the tournament, two new signings will be made.
Real Madrid wants more reinforcements for the World Cup
Real Madrid wants to strengthen its squad ahead of the Club World Cup. It is not enough to have signed Alexander-Arnold and Dean Huijsen, two players who will be important reinforcements for the defense. The club wants more reinforcements to increase the team’s options in a tournament that has become one of the club’s top priorities, to make history, and to make up for a season in which the team has performed below expectations.
Álvaro Carreras is now the priority, but Benfica is making the deal difficult, and it’s not just the Portuguese club; Manchester United also has something to say, as it has retained an option to buy back the player. It’s a three-way deal that is being delayed, among other things, because Benfica is also competing in the Club World Cup and wants to keep the player on its roster.
Alex Grimaldo is the other option being considered by Real Madrid, but he is not the priority and there are more doubts about his performance on the pitch.
Another name that is being strongly linked with a move is Nico Paz, who, after his outstanding performance at Como, could be back sooner than expected.
Real Madrid’s signings for the summer
Beyond the Club World Cup, Real Madrid is preparing the ground to make at least two more signings and is willing to break the bank to bring them to the team. According to Josep Pederol on La Sexta’s Chiringuito, a midfielder and a top striker will arrive. There are many candidates rumored for midfield, such as Stiller, Enzo Fernández, and Mac Allister, but other names could emerge.
Up front, Real Madrid is combing the market to find a player who fits the project and who, in principle, would start as a substitute for Mbappé and Vinicius.
Awaiting the results
The results during the Club World Cup will be decisive for Real Madrid. Each round represents a financial boost, which could reach €150 million if the club wins the title, a significant figure that would allow the Chamartín club to sign players with greater financial solvency and without having to worry about the cost.
Florentino Pérez and the club’s board want to keep winning, they want to keep moving forward and making history at Real Madrid, and they believe it is necessary to bring in new players to breathe fresh air into the team and make it more competitive. This will not only be achieved with a new coach and new players, but also with the departure of some of the team’s heavyweights. No one is safe, and Florentino is sending that message to the squad. No one is more important than the club, no one is above the badge, and the necessary measures will be taken to ensure that Real Madrid returns to the top of European and world football.
