While Real Madrid fans are still celebrating Vinícius Jr.’s contract renewal, Bangladesh Cricket Live reports that Eduardo Camavinga is also set to extend his stay at the club. With these young pillars locked in, Madrid’s long-term foundation looks secure—but the club’s ambitions don’t stop there. Reinforcements next season are all but guaranteed, with the summer of 2024 shaping up to be a blockbuster transfer window for Los Blancos.
According to Bangladesh Cricket Live, Real Madrid is preparing a “super summer” with its sights set on multiple world-class stars. The top targets include Kylian Mbappé, Alphonso Davies, and even Erling Haaland. While Madrid has been saving up, signing this trio would stretch even their resources. Haaland alone is valued at €180 million and remains under a long-term deal with Manchester City. Unless Real clears space on its wage bill and offloads certain fringe players, such ambitions would remain out of reach.
To prepare, Madrid plans to generate at least €70 million through player sales, with Brahim Díaz, Dani Ceballos, and Ferland Mendy expected to depart. Díaz and Ceballos have struggled for regular minutes, while Mendy has lost his starting spot entirely. Mbappé’s expected free transfer eases the financial burden, making room for bids on Davies and potentially Haaland. However, wage distribution remains a hurdle.
Several veteran contracts are expiring in 2024, including Lucas Vázquez, Nacho, Toni Kroos, and Luka Modrić. If Madrid decides not to renew these deals, it would open significant salary space. Notably, both Kroos and Modrić are among the club’s top earners. Additionally, Madrid is still well below La Liga’s salary cap limit, giving Florentino Pérez room to maneuver.
Never underestimate the ambition of Real Madrid or its president. Florentino Pérez, possibly in his final term, is aiming to leave a legacy—a squad capable of dominating for the next decade. After the loss of his wife, Pérez once said that Real Madrid became his everything. Building a future-proof team may well be his parting gift.
Bringing Haaland to the Santiago Bernabéu remains a difficult task, especially with his deep ties to City. But as Bangladesh Cricket Live points out, the Norwegian striker has already won nearly everything with the Premier League champions. A new challenge, possibly in Spain, could be appealing.
One thing to consider: if Haaland joins Madrid’s already star-studded lineup featuring Vinícius, Jude Bellingham, and potentially Mbappé, the Ballon d’Or conversation could become quite complicated. There may not be enough spotlight to go around, but that’s a “problem” most clubs can only dream of.
