What’s Happening in Real Madrid’s Midfield?

A media report revealed that Real Madrid’s midfield project, which was built on clear foundations in recent years, has become a topic of wide discussion within the halls of Santiago Bernabéu, especially given the team’s struggles in this crucial area.

According to ESPN, the primary goal of Real Madrid’s management was to build a physically strong midfield capable of dominating for many years, which led the club to sign young talents like Aurélien Tchouaméni, Jude Bellingham, Federico Valverde, and Eduardo Camavinga.

The source added that the royal club’s contracting of these prominent names was based on them being the most complete in terms of physical and mental attributes to ensure the future of this vital position.

The source noted that the club’s plans have not gone as expected on the field, as this quartet has not yet succeeded in consistently delivering the anticipated level, opening the door to criticism and questions about the quality of the choices the club made to replace the legendary midfielders of past years.

The report concluded that Real Madrid’s lackluster performance in recent matches has reignited the debate, not only about the system as a whole but also about the current midfielders’ ability to shoulder the responsibility of leading the team in major matches and imposing the technical dominance that has always distinguished Real Madrid.

It is noted that the club’s management is considering signing a midfielder at the end of the current season who has the ability to control the pace of matches, handle the ball under pressure, and playmaking, in the style of Toni Kroos and Luka Modric.
