Real Madrid continue their search for a replacement for Toni Kroos. The master of the pass bowed out at the end of last season. His retirement having not been anticipated, he is sorely missed by the Merengue team this year.
The German was often the glue in the midfield. His teammate Luka Modric also embodied this experience but has not played as often as expected this season.
Real could launch a raid on PSG
According to the daily AS, Real is monitoring more elements that it considers likely to make the German forget. Curtis Jones (Liverpool), Rodri (Manchester City), Enzo Fernandez (Chelsea), Joshua Kimmich (Bayern Munich) and Vitinha (PSG) are among the targets.
If Vitinha and Rodri are defensive midfielders, Jones, Fernandez and Kimmich also have the ability to project forward and add something offensively.
Real will hope to find the right balance in their new midfield to give players like Vinicius Jr, Kylian Mbappé and Jude Bellingham the opportunity to express themselves a little more without worrying about defensive duties.
