DBasia.news – Real Madrid have been fully focused on finding players to try to bring in the summer transfer window of 2019. The 2018-19 season has been practically forgotten because it was eliminated from the Champions League, Copa del Rey, and far from Barcelona in LaLiga.
The appointment of Zinedine Zidane – 10 months after he resigned as coach of Madrid – began the Madrid revolution process. Eder Militao became his first recruit for next season. The Brazilian central defender was bought for 50 million euros from FC Porto.
Eder will take one place on the Madrid backline with Raphael Varane, Nacho Fernandez and Jesus Vallejo to become the team captain of the team, Sergio Ramos. Los Blancos have addressed one position.
Nevertheless, according to Italian media, Calciomercato, the Real Madrid revolution will involve more transfer targets playing in Serie A, Italy. Madrid already has a list of players who will try to bring in from Italy in the summer.
Starting from the back, center and front lines, Madrid already has a target. At the back there are Milan Skriniar (Inter Milan) and Kalidou Koulibaly (Napoli), then in the middle, there is Sergej Milinkovic-Savic (Lazio), Miralem Pjanic (Juventus), and Nicolo Zaniolo (AS Roma).
One name in the front line position is Mauro Icardi, a striker who is having a problem with Inter Milan over a contract issue that also involves his agent, Wanda Nara.
In that position, besides targeting Icardi, Madrid also targeted players from outside Italy, namely: Eden Hazard (Chelsea), Neymar, Kylian Mbappe (PSG), and Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur).
Of course, all those names will not immediately join Madrid next summer. One thing is certain: there will be at least one or two-star players who will land at the Santiago Bernabeu.
The appearance shown by Madrid this season has become an evaluation material to look at the revival next season. Madrid need a substitute star Cristiano Ronaldo who left Juventus at the start of this season.
A squad refresh is needed because the latest squad has won everything in the past few years. The existence of new players who are hungry for titles, success, and victory is expected to restore Madrid’s glory in Europe and also Spain.
