With 13 Champions League trophies, Real Madrid is undoubtedly one of the most attractive clubs in the world, or even one of them. For many of the time before, many players preferred to break up with the club and end up just to join the Galaxy. Thanks to the club's own value, Real Madrid are often able to avoid the transfer of operations to sign a lot of strong reinforcements.
In the summer, Real Madrid brought in former Bayern centre-back Alaba for a free signing operation. Although the Austrian centre-back is no longer at his peak, he has also been a diligent player at Real Madrid this season, basically filling the gap for Ramos. Alaba, who is only 29 years old, will remain the absolute main force of the team for the next few years.
In the near future, Real Madrid have a good chance to repeat Alaba's operation and bring in a new defender, he is the German main Player Rudiger from Chelsea. Rudiger was marginalised by Lampard last season, but with Tuchel's arrival, the German suddenly became the most stable player in the Blues' backcourt. In last season's Champions League match, it was Rudiger's steady play that ensured that the Blues finally reached the top.
Chelsea have suffered serious personnel injuries this season, but Rudiger is still on the front lines. If Chelsea didn't have Rudiger, their current results would have to be discounted. Rudiger's contract with Chelsea expires next year, but the Blues are reluctant to come up with an exorbitant salary, which gives Real Madrid a chance to negotiate.
Centre-backs are a scarce player in football, and Real Madrid really need fresh reinforcements after sending away Ramos and Varane. In the current Real Madrid squad, the only centre-back positions are Alaba, Nacho and Militan. At present, the injury problem of the Galactico is not serious, which makes the team's defense not a big problem. But once the intensive schedule came up, the three centre-backs were still difficult to cope with.
In recent seasons, Real Madrid's reinforcement strategy has changed. The Galactico rarely bought a player at a high price, instead choosing to attract expiring market free men with high salaries. Last season, Real Madrid operated Alaba. According to previous news, Real Madrid has basically negotiated with Mbappe that the Galaxy will be a visa-free French superstar in the summer. If Lydiger is introduced visa-free, this basically supports the half of the main force of the Galaxy Phase 3.
For Chelsea, the loss of Rudiger will have an impact. But Chelsea have been able to perform consistently in recent seasons thanks in large part to the sanity of their transfer market. Although Rudiger is important to Chelsea, he must also have a needle like Silva around him. The loss of Rudiger does not mean that Tuchel cannot find a replacement. The Blues have focused on Sevilla's Conde before, and once the deal is made, the Frenchman is not necessarily weaker than Rudiger.
