The majority of Real Madrid’s summer of 2024 has been meticulously planned out, with the recruitment of Kylian Mbappe being their top goal. At this point, they have been after the Frenchman for more than half a decade, and they will finally be able to finalize the trade this summer.
On the other hand, there were rumors that they were interested in acquiring a left back and a center back, particularly in light of the injuries that have been sustained by the backline this season.
During this time, Ferland Mendy had been experiencing a string of setbacks, while David Alaba and Eder Militao had both had anterior cruciate ligament tears.
It has been determined that Alphonso Davies is the leading candidate to solve their left-back issues. However, it is anticipated that the Canadian will not be able to extend his contract with Bayern Munich this summer owing to the exorbitant pay expectations that he has.
At the same time, Madrid was also attempting to make a bid for Leny Yoro, who is now playing for Lille and has a price tag of an estimated one hundred million euros.
On the other hand, Madrid seems to have come to the conclusion that they are content with their team after qualifying for the final of the Champions League and finishing the season with 99 points in La Liga.
Davies, Yoro, will have to wait for you.
COPE has reported that Madrid has made the decision to abandon their pursuit of Leny Yoro and Alphonso Davies over the summer. This decision was made in accordance with the report.
In light of the fact that they are content with their team and players at the moment, they consider that adding the two players is not as vital at this time.
The fact that Ferland Mendy has now established himself as a starter is primarily down to the remarkable turnaround that he has had over the course of the second half of the season. Not only does he have the support of Carlo Ancelotti, but it is also anticipated that he will be a member of the France National Team at the European Championships.
Due to the fact that Eder Militao is now completely healthy as well, Madrid is not in a hurry to spend a lot of money on a center back as early as this summer. Antonio Rudiger has also had an outstanding season.
After the purchase of Kylian Mbappe is finalized, Madrid may move to recruit another striker to fill the vacancy in their attack. Additionally, Madrid may also seek for a midfielder, particularly in the event that Luka Modric and Dani Ceballos wind up leaving the club.
