Real Madrid is already working on what will be its immediate future. With the arrival of Real Madrid's bench, the club is shaping the strategic moves for the summer of 2026.

Two names are at the top of the agenda: Nico Paz and Ibrahima Konaté, operations that are progressing steadily and could significantly strengthen the squad in different areas of the field.

The young Argentine, trained in Valdebebas and currently on loan, has a buy-back clause of around 9 million euros, a figure that Madrid considers more than affordable for a talent that promises to be pivotal in the midfield. His progression has been consistent in recent months, and at 21 years old in 2026, he could become a key piece in continuing the club's renewal project.

Nico Paz and Konaté will be the first, but Real Madrid expects to sign four transfers

In parallel, Konaté's situation is even more enticing from an economic perspective. The French defender, who will become a free agent starting January 1, 2026, fits perfectly into the needs of the white defense. His youth, elite experience, and the possibility of arriving as a free agent make this operation a true market bargain. The sporting direction believes that signing a center-back of this caliber without a transfer fee is an opportunity that cannot be missed.

Real Madrid is also attentive to other positions. Depending on departures, especially in defense, the arrival of another defender is not ruled out. The contracts of Alaba and Rüdiger expire in June 2026, and with both players nearing the end of their careers, the club may decide to invest in a generational replacement.

Additionally, as reported on DefensaCentral, Xabi Alonso considers it essential to incorporate a top-level midfielder. The wish list includes names such as Vitinha (PSG) or Alexis Mac Allister (Liverpool), two players with the ideal profile to bring freshness, quality, and balance to the midfield. The Basque knows that the club may not always fulfill all his requests, but so far, his opinion has carried significant weight in sporting decisions.

In the previous transfer window, Florentino Pérez and José Ángel Sánchez demonstrated full confidence in the new coach. Several of their recommendations materialized into strategic signings, confirming that the management is willing to invest in maintaining the squad among the world's best. The plan is clear: strengthen each line gradually to start a new winning cycle.

The atmosphere at Valdebebas is optimistic. The current squad combines young talents with seasoned players, aiming for a natural transition over the coming seasons. The next two years will be crucial in establishing the foundations of Xabi Alonso's project, which still requires time to implement his tactical ideas and demanding physical preparation.

Carlo Ancelotti's legacy left a solid base, but with a style very different from what the new coach aims to impose. The adaptation process requires patience, both from the club and the fans. However, the future vision is clear: surround figures like Bellingham, Vinícius, and Rodrygo with a competitive structure to compete each season for the Champions League and LaLiga.

The return of Nico Paz and the arrival of Konaté are clear signs that Real Madrid does not rest in its pursuit of excellence. The white club not only looks at the present but intelligently plans for the future to continue being a global reference. Everything indicates that the summer of 2026 will mark a turning point in the evolution of the Chamartín project.
