Hopefully they don't splash out big money on overpriced stars, but rather go for younger relatively unknown players or experienced veterans. 1. Another skilled flair player, preferably a winger to complement Robben, a #7. 2. A young defender, either a center back or left fullback to fill in the gaps in an aging defense, maybe Garay. 3. An expereinced player who can serve as the engine room or someone who can impress themselves upon a game, most importanly being able to change the pace and dictate the flow of the game, a deep-lying playmaker. 4. A creative playmaker, or even another striker, a young Brazilian perhaps, a #10. Options are as follows: 1. Silva, Ribery, Capel, di Maria 2. Garay, ? 3. someone like Xavi, Gattuso, or Makelele 4. Kaka, Keirrison, Dentinho, Lulinha, etc. Im retrospect, I think there are a few signings that Real Madrid must make during the summer.

madrid chopping their midfield up every off season does not do them any favours
but in saying that, I do think a striker and a right wingback would not go amiss

in particular, real must find a way to replace its aging players in defense. in the past, heinze and cannavaro have both performed well for madrid but both are aging fast and cannavaro looks to be leaving.
sell:
cannavaro (he wants to go to juventus)
heinze (his few mistakes are costly ones)
saviola (has never played, so why not sell him?)
m. diarra (injured and lass has performed better)
faubert (just a loan, but stupid signing in the first place)
metzelder (depending on whether we can find someone else to replace cannavaro)
buy:
silva (very good, very young, and valencia need the money)
benzema (will be expensive but certainly has the talent)
one or two young brazilians (there are a few on the market right now but real has seemed reluctant since robinho)
