Real Madrid will head into next summer with full-back positions at the top of their agenda as they look to convince Trent Alexander-Arnold and Alphonso Davies to sign for them. Two of the secondary issues are the midfield and centre-back spots.
It remains to be seen what they want to do in terms of bringing in players, although recent reports claim that they will look to sign a midfielder and see how David Alaba returns to the game before deciding what to do in defense . Central defender Jesus Vallejo will be waved goodbye when his contract expires, that much is certain.
When it comes to Luka Modric, there is less certainty, Diario AS explains. However, Los Blancos will not put any pressure on him and will leave the decision entirely up to him whether he wants to stay, retire or leave the club. The 39-year-old recently became the oldest to play for them and, with the possibility of another arrival, he will have to weigh up whether he wants to stay at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Modric had always said he would leave the club if he was not a guaranteed starter, but he adapted well to a secondary role last season. So far this year he has made 25 appearances, including 10 starts. In those appearances he has also provided four assists and started several important matches, including half of their Champions League games, clearly continuing to play a role in Carlo Ancelotti's thinking, even if Dani Ceballos seems to have left him out of touch in recent weeks in the pecking order. .
