2+1 in signings, Madrid's plan for this summer: the market remains wide open

The operations Real Madrid plans to carry out to finish strengthening its squad this summer

Among all the teams that have made signings this transfer window, the most outstanding has been Real Madrid. The transfers made have been to strengthen key positions and dominate its rivals next season. Even so, according to information from ESPN, Real Madrid is interested in signing a center-back and a midfielder.

While the club could sign major stars, the arrival of emerging talents hasn't been ruled out. This makes it clear that for the remainder of the transfer window, Real Madrid is open to any option. The main goal, of course, is to secure the transfer of players who have the level to perform at the highest level at Real Madrid.

For the defense, as we know at Defensa Central, the club's interest is Ibrahima Konaté. As for the midfield, players like Rodri have emerged as options. The only certainty for the rest of the transfer window is that Real Madrid will remain very active.

The new Real Madrid

After Xabi Alonso's arrival, Real Madrid began to experience significant changes. The coach implemented various systems that, because of the Club World Cup, proved to be key and efficient. However, to get the most out of these playing systems, Xabi needs the right players to achieve it.

The defense managed to strengthen itself before the Club World Cup with the signing of Dean Huijsen. Even so, given the Spaniard's 20 years, Real Madrid is interested in signing a more experienced center-back. Ibrahima Konaté, at 26 years old, fits the profile the team is looking for.

Moreover, the fact that his contract ends in 2026 makes the operation much easier. The midfield, meanwhile, suffered a major blow after Luka Modric's departure. The Croatian left a gap that the club is looking to fill through the transfer of a new leader.

The goal of the season

Despite Real Madrid's objectives, the club won't hesitate to sign a young talent if the opportunity arises. All of this is aimed at achieving the goal for the next campaign. After a season with few titles, the club is looking to dominate again.
