Xabi asks Florentino for this top-level midfielder, it costs €150M and it's not MacAllister

Real Madrid, which continues to prepare for the 2025/26 season, keeps looking at different market options to strengthen the midfield. In fact, according to "Defensa Central," the Madrid club is closely monitoring the situation of Enzo Fernández. The current Chelsea player, who has just become Club World Cup champion, is one of the desires of the Madrid president.

Moreover, Xabi Alonso has also requested the addition of Enzo Fernández for Real Madrid. The coach from Tolosa is very aware of the level and abilities of the Argentine footballer, so he has no doubt about wanting him on his team. However, for the midfielder to arrive, the club would have to make a significant sale first.

Freeing up space to keep strengthening the squad

The idea at Valdebebas is very clear: they need to create space with players who don't want to stay at the club, in order to keep strengthening with other different profiles. In that sense, players like Rodrygo Goes or Dani Ceballos appear, who have been rumored in recent days to leave the club.

If Real Madrid manages to sell Rodrygo for a significant amount, the white team could consider signing a player like Enzo Fernández. 

Enzo Fernández, a player who draws attention at Valdebebas

Without a doubt, Enzo Fernández has always been on Florentino Pérez's radar, who already tried to bring him in when he was shining in Argentina. Chelsea, at the time, paid €121 million to SL Benfica to acquire him. That means, in general, the "blue" team will want to recover a large part of its investment in the event of a sale.

Xabi Alonso is one of the biggest supporters of signing Enzo Fernández. The coach from Tolosa envisions the Chelsea footballer as the ideal partner for Tchouaméni in a double pivot that could free up Güler in the attacking midfield. In fact, signing the Argentine would be perfect for these first three months of competition in which Jude Bellingham won't be available.

What is more than clear is that Xabi Alonso wants a more creative and dynamic midfield. In addition to providing the mentioned characteristics, Enzo Fernández could also bring his high intensity to a midfield that needs to be strengthened.
