As Real Madrid's summer transfer window approaches, serious changes are being discussed within the team. The Madrid club's management is reportedly planning to part ways with two experienced defenders, Antonio Rüdiger and David Alaba, who have been playing in the starting lineup for several seasons.
According to the renowned Spanish publication AS, the club's management is seriously concerned about the two players' similar problem - their frequent injuries. Their health problems had a major impact on the team's playing system, especially in important matches. Therefore, the management aims to enter the new season with a completely healthy and stable defense.
Another important aspect is that Rüdiger and Alaba's contracts will expire next summer. This will allow the "royal club" to retain revenue without losing them as free agents. Consequently, the club is seriously considering selling them during the winter or summer transfer window.
David Alaba has been playing for Madrid since 2021 and has contributed to important victories during this period. Antonio Rüdiger joined the team in 2022 and won the hearts of fans with his mentality and physical strength. However, the injuries shifted their play and distanced them from high stability.
Currently, the team coached by Xabi Alonso leads La Liga with 31 points after 12 rounds. Despite maintaining a strong rhythm in the competition, the Madrid club intends to fundamentally resolve defensive issues during the summer season.
Real Madrid's anticipated reconstruction process is sparking heated discussions among fans. How the team's defense will look in the new season - this question is already intriguing.
