WHERE SPEAK UP

I know some of this is ambitious, but I do think a version of this window is at least somewhat realistic if the club is serious about a proper reset.

Defense

Out

Player	Action
Alaba	Sell / no renew
Asencio	Sell (or Loan)
Mendy	Sell (Injuries ...)
Rüdiger	Sell
Militão	Sell (Injuries ...)
Carvajal	Sell (Mad Respect ...)
Fran García	Sell

In

Player	Action	Role
Schlotterbeck	Buy	Starting CB
Hincapié	Buy	CB, can also cover LB
Jacobo Ramón	Buy-back (€13.5M)	Depth CB
Fortea	Promote	Backup RB for TAA
Joan Martínez	Promote	CB depth
Aguado	Promote	CB depth

Resulting back line

• TAA
• Carreras
• Huijsen
• Schlotterbeck
• Hincapié
• Joan Martínez
• Fortea
• Aguado
• Jacobo Ramón

Why: We get a younger, more athletic, more durable back line. It also gives better balance, with Carreras as the main LB and Hincapié able to cover there when needed.

Midfield

Out

Player	Action
Camavinga	Sell
Ceballos	Sell

In

Player	Action	Role
Adam Wharton OR Kees Smit OR Angelo Stiller	Buy
Nico Paz	Buy-back (€10M)	Creative midfield depth
Chema Andrés	Buy-back (€13.5M)	Midfield depth
Pitarch	Promote	Prospect
Palacios	Promote	Prospect

Resulting midfield

• Bellingham
• Tchouaméni
• Arda
• Valverde
• (Adam Wharton OR Kees Smit OR Angelo Stiller)
• Nico Paz
• Chema Andrés
• Pitarch
• Palacios

Why? There’s a much better mix of profiles here, control, tempo, box-to-box running, defensive stability, and creativity.

Attack

Out

Player	Action
Rodrygo	Sell
Brahim Díaz	Sell
Mastantuono	Loan

In

Player	Action	Role
Endrick	Return / fully integrate	CF / forward depth
Muñoz	Buy-back	Attacking depth
Osimhen	Buy	Starting 9

Resulting attack

• Mbappé
• Vini
• Osimhen
• Endrick (Flexible: CF or RW)
• Gonzalo García (Flexible: CF and sometimes covers for RW...)
• Muñoz (Flexible: RW or LW)

Why? This gives the attack more balance and structure/options. We'd finally have a real central 9 in Osimhen, while still keeping flexibility across the front line with players who can play CF, LW, and RW.
