The war economy conditions the 'Ancelotti Plan'

Ancelotti did not put any conditions during the few hours that the negotiations that brought him a second to Real Madrid lasted. It was a flash talk that started at noon on Saturday and were closed on Monday. The Italian coach has amply demonstrated that he adapts to the circumstances of the clubs he coaches, and this time he faces the most difficult yet. He already knows that the war economy will dominate Madrid, which starts with him on the bench. Beyond Alaba, which comes at zero cost, no transfer is foreseen except, of course, the effort that would only be made by Mbappé. The hiring of a guaranteed striker is not even expected if the French star does not come.

In the roadmap set by the white entity, the first priority is to start some players. Right now there are 31 in the squad and Ancelotti has assumed that it should be shorter (you have to raise money). There are two players who will continue on loan, Foreman Y Reinier, in Rome and Borussia respectively. And they have the transferable poster hanging, as long as good offers arrive Jovic, Brahim, Vallejo, even Odriozola once renewed Lucas Vázquez, Mariano or Kubo …

Later, and named by Ancelotti himself, there are several footballers in a special situation. They are all delicate cases because beyond what they can contribute or the money they can leave in the box, they all have very high salaries. They are the Marcelo, Isco, Bale and, to a lesser extent, Ceballos and Odegaard. Neither of them have any offers, although Arsenal have hinted at their interest in Ceballos and Odegaard. Ceballos, as it has transpired, does not want another assignment. Odegaard is waiting to speak with Ancelotti. Both are players with a good market.

On the other hand, Isco, Bale and Marcelo do not have it. The man from Malaga ends his contract in 2022 and also wants to speak with Ancelotti before making a decision. But the arrival of the Italian can absolutely change the pace. He is 29 years old and Carletto has already made him give up. Bale is one of the key men. Ancelotti hinted that it is valid for this template. After Benzema, the player with the most goals. The most that can come up for him is an offer similar to Tottenham's last summer, which would only pay half the salary. In that case, Ancelotti prefers to keep it. It also ends in 2022.

The priority, therefore, is to lower the salary mass and sell the surplus players to raise money and reduce the fall in income. Ramos has very difficult to renew. He earns 12 million euros net (24 for Madrid) per season and the club has already given that salary to Alaba.

The quarry

The other key, as Ancelotti also said, is in the quarry. If in its first stage it had men like Carvajal, Morata or Nacho, now there are two names that are clearly candidates to be in the first team. The decision is made, unless a very advantageous offer arrives for them. They are the left-back Miguel Gutiérrez and Antonio Blanco, Natural substitute for Casemiro (until his emergence there was none). There are other names, such as Arribas, Marvin or Chust, who are waiting for how the sales go.

The star

Lhe only economic madness that Madrid plans to do is sign Mbappé if he gets within reach. And all summer is going to be directed, with this war economy, to facilitate the operation financially. Everything will depend, in any way, on PSG agreeing to negotiate. Because the player is absolutely convinced of the change of scenery. He would even come, charging less than in Paris, because PSG intends to renew him by bringing his salary closer to the 36 million euros net that Neymar charges.
