Real Madrid's Dream Team for 2024 including Endrick and Bellingham
Real Madrid have agreed a deal with Palmeiras for the €72 million transfer of Brazilian wonderkid Endrick in July 2024. Los Blancos already know what they want their team to look like by the time he arrives.
The European champions have become the masters of the slow but steady turnover in players over the course of the last few years.
It was forecast that Cristiano Ronaldo’s exit might cause a downturn in fortunes for several seasons, but the smart addition of Vinicius Junior and the rise to prominence of Karim Benzema have assured that has not been a blow to cost Los Blancos.
Real Madrid’s best free transfers of all time
Meanwhile, the midfield is in the process of being renewed, with Aurelien Tchouameni and Eduardo Camavinga having arrived from Monaco and Rennes over the course of the last 18 months for lavish fees.
According to AS, this slow but steady process should continue in the period ahead.

How Real Madrid will look in 2024/25
Indeed, it is stated that Madrid’s ideal team by August 2024 will not be wildly different from the one that takes to the field under Carlo Ancelotti now.
There are only three positions to note major upheaval – and only two of them are caused by signings.
Real want to push to sign Jude Bellingham next summer, with Endrick now set to follow him to the Bernabeu a year later – a deal that reportedly inclided an anti-Erling Haaland agreement.
The other major novelty in their plans is in the right-back role, where Vinicius Tobias steps in for Dani Carvajal.
Of course, while this is Real Madrid’s plans, they are savvy enough to know that there are liable to be bumps along the way. For example, this time last year, they were planning on having Kylian Mbappe in their team before he unexpectedly signed a new contract with PSG.
Nevertheless, this is beginning to look the the the team that Los Blancos are working towards having in 2024.
