Real Madrid's puzzling decision

President Perez does not want to spend heavily this summer.

Despite the risk of "Los Blancos" ending this season empty-handed, there is no sign that the Royal Club is ready to spend big this summer. AS revealed that Madrid's leadership does not want to spend too much money in the summer transfer window of 2025.

For a long time, Real Madrid's board believed that the full-back position was the only weak point in the squad. The signings of Alphonso Davies and Trent Alexander-Arnold were considered enough to bring the team back to the top. However, Real's current performances have shown that the club needs more recruits in different positions.

Two comprehensive defeats to Arsenal in the Champions League have shown that Real Madrid are lacking and weak in all three areas. However, the "Los Blancos" leadership is still hesitant to invest heavily. At this point, Real Madrid seem to be satisfied with Trent Alexander-Arnold, who is likely to join the club as a free agent.

Real Madrid need a young, modern centre-back. They have been linked with Dean Huijsen, but Bournemouth's €60m asking price has seen the La Liga side pull out. In midfield, Real Madrid are also lacking a Toni Kroos-style midfielder who can control and distribute the ball. Martin Zubimendi and Florian Wirtz are potential targets for Real Madrid, but the Bernabeu club admit they do not have the resources to compete with their Premier League rivals.

This is confusing to many Real fans, because the club's economic situation is currently positive. Real has not spent too much in recent years. However, what the "Los Blancos" leadership is concerned about is the team's bloated wage bill. Real has also not sold any valuable players in recent times to help raise funds for transfers.

Valverde's masterpiece helped Real Madrid win 3 points. In the early morning of April 21, Valverde launched a classy volley in the 3rd minute of extra time, helping "Los Blancos" defeat Athletic Bilbao 1-0.
