After Mbappe lesson, Real Madrid sets a standard that players must meet before signing them

Real Madrid will not embark on a massive race in search of deals that can fill the void left by Kylian Mbappe. In fact, all the energies of the Real Madrid entity are focused, logically, on the Champions League final next Saturday against Liverpool. They consider that enough effort has already been put into a footballer who has shown little or nothing of his word.

The idea that will prevail from now on is to make sure, in the face of potential signings, that the player in question knows and understands what Real Madrid is and what it means. They will not accept ambiguous messages or anything like that as acceptance. Mbappe’s class at the White Club has been closed. It does not exist and has left a lesson of not trusting the word of a capricious young man, as the French proved.

The steps to follow are clear. Nothing crazy, all the clubs that want to sell know what happened at Real Madrid and the money that was allocated to the Frenchman. They understood from Valdebebas that recklessness could lead to players paying a price higher than the true cost.

The president and coach have spoken on various occasions throughout the season about what the team needs and what needs to be strengthened for the following season. Everything was subject to Mbappe’s arrival, with contacts and negotiations conducted by Florentino Perez and Jose Angel Sanchez.

The 48 hours the president will spend in Chantilly, alongside the team and coaching staff, is not part of the scenario to talk about reinforcements and plan for the next season. The meeting will take place upon his return, already in Madrid and before the Italian goes on his annual vacation before returning on July 8.

With Rudiger tied up and signed, the priority is a midfielder who could be Chuamini if ​​the resumption of contacts pays off. There are alternatives. The other main position is the center of the attack, a position that Mbappe could have played in the end. They seek to ensure that past experiences such as that of Jovic in particular will not be repeated.

For those on loan or players in the midst of various operations, they will all have a hard time seeing their future go through the Real Madrid first team. Nobody is convincing, and although some will participate in the pre-season, a destination is being sought for them. Odriozola, Rainier, Cobo, Borja Mayoral and Ibrahim (he has another year in Milan) will have to search for a destination.
