Xabi Alonso's coaching staff believe the team needs a playmaker in midfield who can operate from deep. However, the club has not found a player on the market who they consider to be sufficiently qualified for this role, reports Cadena SER.
It should be noted that Real Madrid currently has a significant number of players capable of operating in midfield: Camavinga, Chuamení, Valverde, Bellingham, Braim Diaz, Mastaniuno and Guler.
According to Spanish media, Arda Guler is the current player most suited to this role, although he has never played from deep. Therefore, if the club does not find the necessary option in the market, the Turkish footballer will most likely have to fulfill this function.
