๐๐๐๐๐: Real Madrid are planning to enter the market for a creative, deep-lying playmaker in 2026.
By the end of 2025, one issue had become hard to ignore inside the club: Madrid lacked control in midfield following the departures of Luka Modriฤ and Toni Kroos. The trust was placed in the current squad, but none of the available options fully stepped into that role.
Arda Gรผler was pushed deeper, which limited his attacking influence. Eduardo Camavinga moved between positions without settling, while Dani Ceballos โ despite fitting the profile โ never gained consistent backing. Federico Valverde and Jude Bellingham, meanwhile, continue to offer intensity and goal threat rather than pure game management.
There will be no winter signing. Xabi Alonso must keep looking for internal solutions for now, but the message from within the club is clear: adding a midfield organizer is a priority for the next summer window.
