Thursday 16-04-2026
The Spanish club Real Madrid enters a phase of reflection and re-evaluation after the end of a difficult season, following their exit from the Champions League and a decline in their chances of competing for the La Liga title, amid a sense of concern within the club without officially announcing a crisis.

According to the Spanish newspaper 'Mundo Deportivo', Real Madrid's management confirms that they will not make hasty or emotional decisions during the current period, preferring to take their time and study what happened this season comprehensively before taking any steps regarding the future.

The report clarified that the first issue up for discussion within the club is the future of coach Arbeloa, as his continuation seems unlikely so far, despite the decision not being finalized, with the possibility of his staying also existing within the team.

At the same time, Real Madrid has already started considering a number of candidates to take over the team's coaching role, with Zinedine Zidane's name strongly present within the club, despite the difficulty of his return due to his proximity to coaching the French national team, succeeding Didier Deschamps.

The report also indicated that Deschamps' own name is among the list of candidates, alongside Mauricio Pochettino, the current coach of the United States national team, who is admired within the club's management.

As for the German coach Jürgen Klopp, his name has been linked to Real Madrid since the departure of Xabi Alonso and the arrival of Arbeloa, but he denied any contact with the club, expressing no desire to return to coaching at the moment.

On the players' front, the report revealed that Real Madrid is not talking about a revolution in the team, but the summer may see the departure of up to eight players, with Dani Carvajal and David Alaba's contracts ending, and expectations of not renewing their contracts.

The report also mentioned that the club might put Ceballos, Camavinga, Gonzalo, Fran Garcia, and Asensio on the transfer market, while considering loaning out player Mastantonio to give him more playing opportunities.

Conversely, Real Madrid currently excludes the idea of making major signings or selling top-tier stars, despite identifying some positions that need strengthening, primarily the right-back, center-back, and midfield, with the return of Endrick and the recovery of Nico Paz.
