Los Blancos will once again invest in the summer transfer market, following the acquisition of Kylian Mbappe on a free transfer, as well as Eduardo Camavinga, Aurelien Tchouameni, and Jude Bellingham in recent years.
It had been the most closely guarded secret in football in recent months that PSG megastar Mbappe was on his way to the Santiago Bernabeu.
However, the Frenchman may not be the only major name to arrive despite the astronomical financial outlay required to acquire him.
These five individuals have the potential to join Real Madrid this summer...
William Saliba (Arsenal)
According to reports, Real Madrid is reportedly interested in signing Arsenal defender William Saliba this summer. This is a sensational transfer rumor.
Paris Saint-Germain is also stated to be intrigued. After returning to the Emirates Stadium, France international emerged as one of the world's most accomplished defenders.
Saliba's contract expires in three years, and his estimated transfer value (ETV) is €58.8 million. However, Arsenal is unlikely to permit the 23-year-old to depart, and they would likely only consider world-record offers.
According to CaughtOffside, the club is interested in him; however, they must negotiate with PSG.
Alphonso Davies (Bayern Munich)
Alphonso Davies' potential relocation to Spain is another relatively well-known example. The Bayern Munich left-back is currently in a contract stalemate with his team, and no extension seems to be on the horizon.
This implies that the Bavarians will attempt to capitalize on the Canadian this summer to prevent his loss for nothing next year.
It is alleged that Real Madrid has been engaged in negotiations regarding this transaction since at least October 2023 and is currently anticipating Bayern's ultimate approval before submitting a formal proposal.
Miguel Gutierrez (Girona)
The most understated transfer Real could execute this summer may be the return of Miguel Gutierrez.
The former Castilla full-back has made an impression at Girona of City Group, and there have been rumors that Los Blancos could exercise their €8 million buy-back clause.
Although the acquisition of Davies could potentially alter those plans, Gutierrez will probably don the renowned white shirt in the upcoming term if Real cannot secure the Canadian.
Real Madrid was also associated with Yan Couto, Gutierrez's right-sided counterpart. However, the Brazilian, who is owned by Man City, has been loaned to Borussia Dortmund.
Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool)
This one should be classified as one of the more unrealistic potential agreements.
Real Madrid purportedly monitors Trent Alexander-Arnold's contract negotiations, or absence thereof, as the right-back's contract expires in 2025.
Liverpool has not yet initiated negotiations regarding new terms for their vice-captain.
Although there have been some rumors that Real Madrid may initiate a proposal this summer, it is more probable that they will wait until the following year to formally manifest their interest.
Jarrad Branthwaite
Real Madrid has indeed been associated with England international Jarrad Branthwaite in recent months, whether you believe it or not.
This is because Carlo Ancelotti provided him with his Everton debut during his tenure at the club, which was considered deserving of a pub quiz.
Nevertheless, it is improbable that Los Blancos will have the necessary financial resources to accommodate Kylian Mbappe's arrival.
Additionally, Ancelotti recently stated that Real Madrid does not intend to enhance their defense despite the departure of commander Nacho to Saudi Arabia.
