Real Madrid's historic victory against Barcelona in the Copa del Rey created a great atmosphere in the white dressing room and Real Madrid are experiencing quite calm days ahead of the Champions League quarterfinals. However, Florentino Pérez is not resting and remains focused on the future of his team for next season.

The truth is that the Valdebebas team will probably undergo several changes in its squad in the middle of the year and the idea of the board is to rebuild the team with several high-level young players. One of them was Jude Bellingham, who learned in these hours that he will leave Borussia Dortmund for good at the end of the season.

However, it seems that the arrival of the English international in Madrid is not entirely certain, since he has two very strong competitors at the moment: Liverpool and Manchester City. In addition, the player would not look badly on returning to his native country, where the language would not be a problem and at his young age, he would still have time to make the leap to Real Madrid.

For this reason and without having a clear picture about the future of Jude Bellingham, Florentino made a key decision. And it is that both Luka Modric and Toni Kroos will renew their contracts with Merengue, at least, for one more season, as Carlo Ancelotti himself was able to reveal at a press conference.

The other option that Real Madrid manages

Although Bellingham's arrival is not entirely certain, Real Madrid have a second option that could be very helpful at the Santiago Bernabéu. We are referring to Alexis Mac Allister, a 24-year-old midfielder who has just been world champion with Argentina and who is having an exceptional season in the Premier League.
