The club, which added four players in 2025, is now eyeing a further five or six additions for the 2026 window. Key targets are Endrick, who will return from Lyon, Nico Paz for €9 m, and midfielder Kees Smit, though Premier League interest may complicate the deal.
Defensive changes are also on the agenda, with David Alaba and Antonio Rüdiger expected to leave at season’s end. Real Madrid may re‑sign Jacobo Ramon, consider Ibrahima Konaté, and look for a new right‑back if Dani Carvajal departs.
