Original title: Real Madrid has reached the point of having to innovate, selling Varane is emotionally difficult to accept, rationality is very appropriate
Selling Varane, for Real Madrid, is actually a difficult choice, as the team's 10 years of meritorious achievements, witnessed the team's most successful years of meritorious players, at such a time to send it away, it is indeed easy to cause dissatisfaction and some so-called moral accusations, that is, the so-called so cold to meritorious players, is it a little unkind.
But the club is not a charity, it never will be, and for the good development of the club, the team should indeed do something that looks callous.
A thing that cannot be ignored is that the discussion about the renewal of Real Madrid has begun since a long time ago, Zidane is very reluctant to help him to the peak of the coach of those veterans, he has a sense of doing so, but the thinking angle of coaches and players and fans must be completely different from the high-level, the front camp tends to be more emotional, they want to see their favorite players are still in the team, but what the latter camp sees and thinks of, more is how the team can move forward normally, The thinking angles of these two sides are indeed very different, and this is where the contradiction lies.
What's more, even the fans and media groups, when the team performance is very poor, in fact, will often stand up to do things, constantly calling on the team to innovate, especially Real Madrid in recent years to give people a feeling of aging dragon bell, such an appeal voice is not wrong, but the problem is that they are also called for the merits of the elders, in fact, this does leave a big problem for the club, how to do it, how to do it? Facts have proved that Zidane has always trusted veterans in the past, and the result is indeed a failure when dealing with the club's multi-line battle, perhaps Real Madrid can rely on their own ability for a while in the early and middle stages, but as they enter the middle and late stages of the league, the physical problems of the veterans immediately appear, and the real Madrid have repeatedly dropped the chain at the last minute in the past 2 years, which has fully illustrated this problem.

In fact, judging from the two operations of selling Varane and inviting Carlo Ancelotti back, Real Madrid has begun to realize that the team must undergo a major change, and this work has reached the point of urgency. Leaving aside whether all this has anything to do with the introduction of Mbappe, this has been fully demonstrated purely in terms of some of Real Madrid's previous operations. For example, after signing a 1-year contract with Modric, the renewal of some role players such as Vazquez and Nacho did not meet their salary treatment, it can be said that the club's attitude at this time has become obvious, that is, gradually complete the cleansing work. Florentino knows very well that it is very difficult for a team like Real Madrid to purge players, after all, the platform and salary here are unmatched by other teams, and since it is impossible to complete a large-scale cleanup, it may be a good way to complete it gradually.
Therefore, it cannot be assumed that Real Madrid is simply targeting Varane, but since the contract still has 1 year to ask for a high salary and cannot be renewed, it is better to cash it out directly at this time. Although the price of 50 million is not as impressive as the 70 million that Real Madrid originally hoped for, it is quite good, and for Real Madrid, the deal is also very successful, and it is foreseeable that from now until the next 1-2 transfer windows, Real Madrid can only walk out of more and more people.
