Real Madrid could conclude their summer transfer business by signing a new midfielder but are yet to identify a viable target, according to one report.
It’s been a summer of change for Los Blancos following Xabi Alonso’s arrival and the acquisition of four first-team players—Dean Huijsen, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Álvaro Carreras and Franco Mastantuono—with the Spanish giants aiming to improve upon last season’s underwhelming performances.
A new-look defense should help Madrid rediscover their mojo, but summer spending might not yet be complete as they look to usurp fierce rivals Barcelona at the summit of Spanish football.
According to, “the signing of another midfielder has been considered”, although they are yet to be “convinced” by anyone on the market. They are also prioritizing player departures over signings at present, but an engine room addition cannot be ruled out.
Madrid do have a number of world class options in the center of the field already, but they have witnessed club legend Luka Modrić join AC Milan over the summer. They’re yet to replace the veteran Ballon d’Or winner or his former teammate Toni Kroos, who retired in 2024.
So, who could Madrid target in midfield?
