"World Sports News" reported that Real Madrid is planning a major adjustment of the defense line. The current central defender situation in the team is delicate, with Huizen, Militao, Asensio, Alaba and Rudiger.

Among them, the contracts of Alaba and Rudiger will expire next year, which puts them into a "complex" stage of negotiations. Rudiger, who has just recovered from two months of injury, is expected to face competition from Huizen, Militao and even Asensio, and it will be difficult to secure a starting position.

The situation of David Alaba is even worse. Although he can play for Xavi Alonso, he has only played 146 minutes in four games this season, and his status has dropped significantly.

At the same time, Real Madrid is paying close attention to the market, especially the three players who may join for free: Upamecano, Konate and Marc Guei.

In addition, the team's biggest desire is Saliba, but he needs a high transfer fee because his contract with Arsenal does not expire until 2030. Everything shows that the next summer window will be decisive for Real Madrid's defense.
