T<\/span>This is a sign of reflection at Real Madrid, who apply the principle “the more storms, the calmer they become”. Eliminating the Champions League in the quarterfinals effectively means the team will be sentenced to a season without a trophy, forcing them to reflect and analyze, but they must always exercise restraint. “The season isn’t over yet,” they say. <\/p>\n
It is clear that the analysis carried out through public opinion is also carried out within the club. This is true not only in the context of specific competitions and matches, but also in the context of the overall performance of this season, which still has seven official matches remaining. Many duels that can provide data relevant to the final rating. <\/p>\n

Vinicius Jr. is training Nutmeg Torrent, but he always remains friendly.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n
There are several main focuses. One of them is Alvaro Arbeloa, whose decision will be made after the team’s participation in La Liga ends. While the overall assessment of the manager’s work is positive, given the circumstances, such as the accumulation of a large number of injuries at key moments (seven injuries before the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 against City), the truth is that the measure of every Real Madrid manager is the title. Having been eliminated in the Copa del Rey and the Champions League (the Spanish Super Cup went to Xabi Alonso), only a La Liga miracle can save them. Logically, Madrid have replacement players, but none of them, at least not yet, include managers like Ilgen Klopp (a fan favorite in MARCA.com’s survey) and Didier Deschamps.<\/p>\n

Another purpose is to make the team lighter. The idea is to form a group of around 22 first-team players, completed by youth players such as Thiago Pitarch and Joao Martinez. Real Madrid believes that despite the many injuries this season, the situation continues to be unpleasant, with some players complaining that they have not been able to stand out because they have not been active in the team for too long.<\/p>\n
Some of these players have little option to continue. The clearest cases are that of Alaba, whose contract expires in June, and Ceballos, whose contract expires in 2027 but is also expected to leave. Digger’s contract also expires this summer, but the German has the option to stay. The most special case is that of Carvajal, whose contract also expires on June 30th. The club’s intention is to respect the wishes of its captain, who is a stalwart of the club and a member of an exclusive club that includes six European champions. <\/p>\n
Some players under contract may leave the club. These are particularly the cases of Camavinga and Asensio, but Fran Garc\u00eda and Gonzalo could also be included in this group. The first two have been negative protagonists in recent weeks, confirming the worst omens for Madrid’s season.<\/p>\n
360 degree analysis<\/h2>\n
In any case, the analysis carried out by the club is not yet complete, but it covers all members of the team. This includes strong players who must remain at the heart of the project (Mbappe, Vinicius, Bellingham), as well as players who have proven their worth and importance in recent campaigns, such as Courtois, Trent, Militao, Valverde, Tioameny and Arda G\u00fcler. Last summer’s signings such as Trent, Huisen and Carreras also maintain their credibility despite having a weak collective season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
