After finishing the season, the Real Madrid coaching staff and management will focus on finishing shaping the squad for the next season, 2020/21. There will be few new faces in the team because the club's priority is to sell and not sign and even less to a great star due to the economic crisis derived from the coronavirus.
In fact, the white club has already transferred four players who were on loan: Achraf (Inter), Javi Sánchez (Valladolid, De Frutos (Levante) and Dani Gómez (Levante). For all of them, the white club has entered 48 million. A strategy of selling to loaners, always with a right of first refusal, that you will follow.
Óscar Rodríguez, Kubo, Odegaard and Ceballos They are other players on loan who will not make it to Real Madrid. The only one of all of them who seems clear about his destiny is Odegaard who everything indicates that he will continue in Real Sociedad. Kubo has many offers to go on loan since Madrid does not contemplate his sale, something that does not happen with Óscar Rodríguez and Ceballos, who can continue at Arsenal. To all of them we must add Reinier, who will go on loan with Valladolid as a favorite to be his destination.
Of all the loans that Real Madrid has, those who return to stay are Odriozola and Lunin. The full-back returns after his assignment at Bayern and with Achraf's departure, he remains to be Carvajal's replacement. The Ukrainian goalkeeper will be the second goalkeeper, Courtois' relay.
On the exit ramp
If Real Madrid has already planned the fate of those on loan, the same is not the case with some of the players it has on the squad. Bale and James They already know that Zidane does not have them and the club is looking for a destination for him. The Colombian is not going to make a problem to leave, but what Bale is going to do is anyone's guess.
The Welshman is not about to leave, something that also happens with Mariano, another of the players that Zidane does not have and does not want to leave Real Madrid.
Brahim, for his part, he has many numbers to go on loan with Betis, Getafe and Granada bidding for him. For their part, there are players who end their contract in 2021 and if a good offer arrives for both the club and themselves, they could leave. These are the cases of Lucas Vázquez and Nacho.
The most special case is that of Jovic. Monaco insists on his signing, the same as Milan and the club would see him with good eyes, but the player doubts and it will be necessary to see how this matter of Jovic's future ends.
Regarding the needs, Zidane you want a central, though Militao It has more than fulfilled, to the surprises of many. He has also asked for a midfielder to replace Casemiro. Camavinga is the chosen one, but Rennes will not let him leave and Madrid will not pay a millionaire. Upstairs, the coach wants a scorer, although if they stay Mariano and Jovic, your request will fall on deaf ears.
Pogba He is still on Zidane's request list, but the club is still not clear about his signing, so it seems difficult for United to end up signing. The only option would be for James to go into the operation. Something that Manchester United do not see anything clear.
