The white club prioritises departures after closing several signings. Players like Tchouaméni, Camavinga or Vinicius could leave the club this summer.
Real Madrid is facing a summer of movements in the transfer market that goes beyond just acquisitions. After finalising deals such as that of Marc Cucurella and having the transfers of Diomandé and Rodri lined up, the club's management has focused on the necessary exodus operation. In an ideal scenario, the club prefers to alternate purchases and sales to avoid projecting an image of need, but the priority has centred on signings to also serve as a guide for the players set to be discarded.
The situation affects all lines of the team. In defence, the need to bring in a centre-back remains, but for that to happen, Raúl Asencio must leave. There has also been speculation about Carreras leaving, as he has interest in the Premier League. However, it is in the rest of the field where the major sales are projected to complete the generational change after two seasons without titles.
Movements around Tchouaméni and Camavinga are significant. The former is reported to have renewed until 2031, but he has no shortage of suitors in the English market. His compatriot, on the other hand, is bound to leave sooner or later after a poor season. The amounts being discussed, above 70 million euros, reflect the inflation of a market where Real Madrid is not usually a seller.
Vinicius is another notable name. The Brazilian has entered the final year of his contract without having renewed, which has sparked interest from clubs like Arsenal, according to 'The Athletic'. Manchester United also appears on the list of potential destinations, a club with which Real Madrid has previously done business, with exits like those of Di María, Casemiro and Varane.
Mastantuono and Gonzalo are other players who could leave. The case of Endrick presents its own peculiarities: the Brazilian would not be willing to spend another season on loan, although the movements in attack create a blocking situation for him. Managing the substitutes will be one of Mourinho's major challenges, as he hopes to have profiles of 'player number 12' like Brahim, although this is a role that is difficult to sustain over time.
The transfer market closes on Tuesday, September 1, so there is more than a month of intense activity ahead. The club's management is working to balance the squad and lighten the wage bill, while Real Madrid fans remain alert to the movements that will define the project for the upcoming season.
