Real Madrid plans to adjust the lineup, five players may leave the team

Real Madrid is planning to carry out a large-scale restructuring of the team's lineup, with the goal of further rejuvenating and improving overall competitiveness. Led by new coach Xavi Alonso, club executives have identified which players will likely leave the team in order to make room for the new players to be introduced, including Arnold, Franko Mastantuono and Dean Heisen.

According to reports from Spanish media Fichajes, the following five players were included in the "potential departure list": David Alaba, Ferran Mendy, Rodrigo, Danny Sebalos and Enderick.

ranked first by French full-back Ferran Mendy. In the past season, he has performed poorly due to frequent injuries and has gradually lost his main position. Today, Fran Garcia has successfully replaced his role with his outstanding performance in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup.

Real Madrid priced Mendy about 10 million euros and is in contact with Benfica's left-back Alvaro Carreras to find a suitable replacement.

Alaba's prospects for recovering from injury are unclear

David Alaba's situation is more special. The Austrian international has not fully recovered from serious injuries, and Real Madrid hopes to have a healthier and more stable central defender. If an attractive offer is received, the club does not rule out the possibility of selling it.

Cebalus's status was shaken, and Guerre's rise became a key midfielder. Danny Cebalus, who was once regarded as a hope for creativity, also lost his main position due to the rapid growth of Arda Guerre. Although Celeros has excellent dribbling and ball control, his role is no longer so indispensable in Alonso's tactical system.

Rodrigo is chased by the top three in the Premier League

On the front line, Rodrigo's situation is the most eye-catching. Currently, Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool, three Premier League giants, have shown strong interest in him. Given his contract situation at Real Madrid and the popularity of the transfer market, the Brazilian winger is very likely to seek new challenges this summer.

As for young player Enderick, Real Madrid is not in a hurry to sell, but tends to rent him out and exercise to accumulate experience in European courts.

It is reported that Portuguese sports have expressed strong interest and are willing to provide a good development platform. In addition, they have proposed some priorities for future deals to attract Real Madrid to consider signing their defenders Dimande or Gonzalo Inasio in the future.
