Real's weak positions for the new season have been identified
Last season, Madrid's "Real" team finished without a trophy for the first time in many years. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

This result was deemed unsatisfactory by the club's management and ordinary fans. As a result, "Real" is preparing to enter the new season with a new head coach and several new players.

Let's take a look at which positions in the team have been fully filled and which areas Xabi Alonso might request new players from the management. In the goalkeeper position, Thibaut Courtois has been guarding the goal for many years and is a familiar figure for Madrid fans.

There is no doubt about the quality of his game, but in recent years he has been struggling with numerous injuries. For example, a year ago he missed a large part of the season due to a serious knee injury.

Of course, everyone hopes he will recover his health, but the risk of recurring injuries is always present. "Real" has Andrey Lunin as the second-choice goalkeeper, but there has been much talk in the foreign press about his potential departure from the team.

If Lunin leaves, the lack of a good backup goalkeeper in the team will be a significant problem. Therefore, the management must immediately consider hiring an experienced goalkeeper to cover for Courtois.

For instance, the former Spanish goalkeeper David De Gea, who has shown interest in the past, could be considered. He may be able to help the team on a short-term contract, and given that "Real" is his club, this option could be explored.

In defense, this summer "Real" has strengthened its lineup. Promising Premier League player Dean Heysen and right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold have joined the team.

However, it is difficult to say that "Real's" defense is solid. The team conceded four goals against PSG in the semi-finals of the World Club Championship due to simple mistakes.

Along with the new players in defense, there are also Carvajal, Mendy, Fran Garcia, Militao, Rudiger, and Alaba. On paper, this is a strong lineup, but there are health-related issues.

Especially among the central defenders, Alaba, Militao, and Rudiger have missed many games due to injuries. Alaba has suffered another injury after a serious one, and it seems that his best years are behind him.

Militao has also spent a lot of time recovering, while Rudiger has had a long season and is not in good physical condition. Dean Heysen is a young and promising player, but he is not yet fully matured and will need time to adapt to the new team.

On the wing defense, the situation is good. Carvajal is training with the team, and Trent is ready to be the main right-back.

On the left wing, there are Mendy and Fran Garcia. Garcia sometimes shows sluggishness in defense but provides good support in attack.

If Canadian Alfonso Davies joins the team, the left wing will become even stronger. The midfield is "Real's" strongest line.

It is the heart and engine of the team. In recent years, the team has rejuvenated its central line and built a new system.

With the era of Modric and Kroos passing, new stars – Tchouaméni, Camavinga, Valverde, and Bellingham – will play a key role. Tchouaméni performs defensive tasks well, while Camavinga serves as his backup.

Valverde is a versatile player who works hard for the team. Bellingham plays the role of a "false ten," operating between attack and midfield.

His movements and composure on the field are crucial for the team. Additionally, Arda Güler is ready to step in from the bench if necessary.

The midfield line is strong, young, and technically advanced. As for the attack, "Real's" offense is very strong.
