Real Madrid are looking to add fresh legs to their squad. Xabi Alonso knows that winning major trophies with the squad he has can be difficult.
He had a reality check in the Club World Cup semi-final where PSG decimated his team.
Joao Never, Fabian Ruiz, and Vitinha won the midfield battle comprehensively. Real Madrid midfielders were clueless when PSG midfielders pressed them.
That is why they are looking for a midfielder who can beat the press from the opposition and take control of the game in the middle of the park.
Real Madrid are already eyeing a move for Manchester City star Rodri, Transfer New Live revealed earlier.
However, the Los Blancos are one of the biggest clubs in the world. They are always looking at the future.
Rodri could be a great addition. However, the Spaniard is 29 years old. Xabi Alonso needs to be cautious about signing a player from that age group.
Apart from that, Rodri spent the entirety of the last season on the sidelines due to an injury.
Also, his comeback in the Club World Cup was far from satisfactory as the Citizens lost to Al-Hilal to get knockedout of the competition.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid is looking to secure the future of their midfield. That is why, according to DefensaCentral, the Los Blancos are eyeing a move for an Arsenal wonderkid.
Yes, they are looking to sign Max Dowman, who plays in Arsenal’s youth system. The 15-year-old has caught the eye of Florentino Perez, who wants to bring him to Valdebebas.
Max Dowman has shown excellent skills in the attacking midfield position. That is why Real Madrid are eyeing to bring him to Spain.
Many European giants are targeting Max Dowman. He is already training with the youth system of one of the biggest clubs in England.
But if Real Madrid came calling, it would be hard for the youngster not to consider this chance.
