Vinicius Jr’s Future in Doubt as Los Blancos Plan Major Squad Overhaul Under Xabi Alonso
Real Madrid are preparing for a dramatic summer clearout after their 4-3 loss to Barcelona effectively handed LaLiga to their rivals—with up to €400m worth of players now on the chopping block.
Despite Kylian Mbappé’s hat-trick heroics at Montjuïc, Carlo Ancelotti’s side collapsed yet again against Barça, leaving them trophyless this season. Club president Florentino Pérez has already acted swiftly, finalizing Xabi Alonso’s arrival as new head coach next week ahead of the Club World Cup. But the changes won’t stop there.
Vinicius Jr’s Uncertain Future
The Brazilian winger, once untouchable, now finds himself at a crossroads. While reports suggest he’s close to signing a new contract with Mbappé-level wages, his inconsistent form (just 4 goals since February) has left the board hesitant. A staggering €300m Saudi offer could still tempt Madrid into selling—a scenario unthinkable just a year ago.
Midfield Shake-Up
Aurélien Tchouaméni, once seen as a cornerstone, is now deemed expendable after struggling in big games. Madrid will demand €90-100m for the Frenchman. Dani Ceballos, whose disastrous El Clásico performance summed up his fringe status, is also available for €10-20m.
Defensive Overhaul
Left-back Fran García, tormented by Lamine Yamal in the derby, has been deemed surplus to requirements. Bournemouth are already circling for the €15-20m-rated defender as they plan for life without Milos Kerkez.
With Alonso set to take the reins, only a select few players appear safe in what promises to be a ruthless rebuild. For a club accustomed to silverware, this summer’s fire sale signals a stark admission: after a trophyless campaign, no one’s place is guaranteed.
