The defense of Real Madrid is one of the issues that most concerns the white house for the coming season. However, Grada3 has been able to confirm that for the next campaign Real Madrid will not sign any players to strengthen this position.
No signings for next season
There has been a lot of information appearing in recent days about the possible arrival of a central defender at Real Madrid. However, Grada3 confirms that at the moment, the Whites will not be making any signings for next season.
The Real Madrid offices are confident in the current squad for next season. Firstly, Rudiger has publicly stated that he has no intention of changing clubs and will remain at the club next season, so the first fire in the Whites’ camp has been extinguished.
On the other hand, there is full confidence that Alaba will recover his best level for the next season. He is struggling this year after the serious knee injury he suffered. He is struggling this year, but little by little he is showing a higher level and it is taken for granted that, by the start of the next season, he will have made a full recovery.
There is also full confidence in Militao: the footballer is still in the recovery phase after the second knee injury. However, after the first recovery, it was noticeable how quickly he shortened the times and how quickly he was able to recover his form, and it is hoped that, with his determination and sacrifice, he will be able to return to that level as soon as possible.
Confidence in Real Madrid’s youth team
The emergence of Raúl Asencio has been a breath of fresh air for the Real Madrid defense. The meteoric rise of the Canary Islander has earned him the trust of the coach, the board of directors, the fans and the national coach, who has called him up for the play-offs of the National League against the Netherlands.
But Asencio is not the only player from the youth academy who is being watched closely. In Castilla, and especially after the Canarian’s promotion to the first team, Joan Martínez has attracted a lot of attention. The Valencian footballer has established himself as one of the mainstays in the Castilla defense and it is hoped that he will do the summer pre-season with the first team and be one of the main players in the next Club World Cup to be held this summer in the United States.
Dean Huijsen, not at any price
Real Madrid would only consider the arrival of Dean Huijsen, the AFC Bournemouth centre back recently called up by De la Fuete. However, his signing is estimated at around 60 million euros, and in the offices of the white club they consider it a disproportionate price that they are not willing to assume. It is true that they like his performance on the field, his speed, his aerial play and his passing, he is a very complete central defender but they doubt his ability to withstand the pressure of the team at such a young age, so paying 60 million for him could be a risk.
At Real Madrid there is complete confidence in the current defense. They know that the problems have come in the form of injuries, but with a healthy squad, they have more than consolidated central defenders so that they don’t have to sign anyone for next season. Florentino Pérez continues with his philosophy of signing low-risk players, even if they are expensive, but he doesn’t want to waste money on simple sports bets that do not ensure an improvement in the performance of the squad.
