Real Madrid is already thinking about players it could recruit during the 2026 summer transfer window, and several positions in the Xabi Alonso workforce must be treated.

It is well known that a new central defender is sought, but the midfielder is also on the agenda.

The replacement of Toni Kroos, retired in 2024, has still not been found, and moreover, Luka Modric also left. A transfer for a new midfielder was envisaged during the last transfer window, but it was finally decided that Alonso would keep the players at his disposal.

Names like Rodri Hernandez and Adam Wharton have been mentioned, but according to Graeme Bailey (via Cauughtoffso), Real Madrid also plans to recruit the Chelsea Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez players.

Real Madrid carefully studies the potential options in the midfield. He is constantly working on his potential targets. Under the direction of Juni Calafat, he transformed his recruitment and his ability to optimize movements.

They are interested in the midfield. They are not worried, but are worried about their depth, and I was told that Fernandez and Caicedo are two players that they appreciate and that they follow regularly.

Real Madrid has long been interested in Fernandez

This is not the first time that Real Madrid has been interested in Fernandez, a first revelation following its exploits with Argentina during the 2022 World Cup. Chelsea recruited it shortly after this tournament, but the team continues to consider it as a potential recruit.

It remains to be seen who Real Madrid will choose next summer. Alonso will insist on the profile required for his workforce, since he already has Aurélien Tchouameni, Eduardo Camavonga, Federico Valverde, Jude Bellingham and Arda Guller.
