The Real Madrid, current champion of Spain and Europe, is facing a crisis stemming from a widely criticized and deficient squad planning led by Florentino Pérez and Carlo Ancelotti. Despite the stellar signings of Kylian Mbappé and Endrick, deficiencies in key areas of the team have been exposed, especially after losing two fundamental pillars: Nacho Fernández, who moved to Saudi Arabia, and Toni Kroos, who decided to retire.

Madrid's sports management seems to have focused on strengthening the attack, forgetting that team solidity is built from defense and midfield. Nacho's departure left a gap in the defense, which, combined with the injury plague affecting key players like Éder Militão, who got injured with the Brazilian national team, and David Alaba, has left Antonio Rüdiger as the only available center-back for the upcoming matches. This situation leaves coach Carlo Ancelotti with few options to maintain a competitive defense in a demanding schedule.

Injuries Double the Blow

In midfield, the absence of an orchestrator following Kroos' retirement is becoming increasingly evident. Although Ancelotti has talents like Federico Valverde and Jude Bellingham, the latter also injured, none of them possess Kroos' characteristics to dictate the game's rhythm and control the tempo. Injuries to Eduardo Camavinga and Aurélien Tchouaméni further worsen the situation, leaving the team without a true playmaker in the center of the field.

Despite Real Madrid's offensive power with stars like Vinícius and Mbappé, they face a season full of uncertainties due to deficiencies in their planning. With a tight schedule, competing in up to seven different competitions and concluding with the 2025 Club World Cup, and facing high-caliber opponents, the lack of depth in key areas could prove costly for the white team in the title race.
