As: Real Madrid has not found a successor to Cross and may choose to continue to trust existing players

August 5, Western media Ass reported that Real Madrid has not yet found a successor to Cross and may choose to continue to trust existing players.

Real Madrid's signings this summer mainly strengthened the defense, and they signed a central defender (Wyson) and two full-backs (Arnold and A Fee). At the same time, the offensive end was consolidated by introducing Mastantono, and players could serve as right winger or front midfielder according to the team's needs. But there are no new players in the midfield area, although Xavi Alonso hopes that there will be a reinforcement in this position. Zubimendi was the first choice, but Real Madrid was not optimistic, so he eventually joined Arsenal.

Last season, one of the big problems for Real Madrid was taking the ball from the backcourt; it was also difficult to control the ball steadily when facing teams with weaker strength on paper. In other words, Cross's retirement has a huge impact. Without Kroos, Real Madrid has exposed their shortcomings in holding balls, and it is necessary to strengthen this summer at this position. But this hasn't happened, and it's likely not.

Because there is no player in the market that can make Real Madrid's eyes shine. Rodri was a safe choice before the cruciate ligament ruptured, and Real Madrid also made it clear that he was willing to join Real Madrid. But the serious injuries he had almost all of his absences last season changed that prospect, coupled with his age and the high price Manchester City demanded. All of this makes it extremely impossible for him to join Real Madrid.

And other players do not meet the goals of Real Madrid's management, including the aforementioned Zubimendi, McAllister, Stiller, and Enzo. Real Madrid will not sign for the sake of signing, so they would rather maintain the status quo. The club is firmly convinced that existing players can play better than last season. They bet on Joan Améni's progress and Guerre's transformation to a more inward midfield position.
