Projection Squad and Transfer Target for next Season.


As we are at the closing stage of the season, and our title(s) fate we be depend on how well we do in the next few weeks. We could still have a chance of winning a double or out of the title race and UCL by mid-May. We shall see.
Anyway, lets get on with the main bit. Here are my preference squad for next season.

* as transfer target

+ back from loan

Goalkeepers

1. Casillas

13. De Gea* (£30-35m)

25. Navas / Pacho

I think De Gea has a 80% chance coming, he only have 1 year contract left and news reported he just recently rejected to renew. I think £ 30m would be a good deal for the future Spanish no.1 .

Iker said he is willing to stay at the club ever he get bench, so i think Navas would leave if that is the case. But obviously I want Navas to stay, as we will have 3 world class GK .

Defenders

2 Varane

3 Pepe

4 Sergio Ramos

5 Fabio or Gaya* (£10-15m?)

12 Marcelo

15 Dani Carvajal

17 Danilo

18 Nacho

No surprises here. Arbeloa is expected to leave with Danilo arrival. Him and Carvajal will fight for the first spot.

I hope Fabio stay, he was solid against At.Mad. But the "media" has been saleing him a lot recently, so I think he will leave at the end of the season and income of Gaya.

Midfielders

6 Casemiro +

8 Kroos

10 James

14 Modric

16 Verratti* (30-40m)

22 Cheryshev +

23 Isco

Verratti would be a good rotation of Modric and Kroos.

Casemiro's strength and work-rate will be very much need as the CDM when playing against physical teams.

Illarra will be sold. Lucas Silva would be loan out for minutes. Kherdia leave on a free transfer.

Forwards

7 Ronaldo

9 Benz

11 Bale

19 Back up target man/ poacher striker * (Llorente?)

21 Reus* (£40-50m)

Jese would be loan out for minutes. Little pea would be back at Manchester.

I don't expect BBC would play every single damn game in the entire season. So Reus would be a good rotation with any one of the front 3, he also fits the galacticos policy.

Furthermore, we need a different style striker when we need to plum the ball into the box in the dying minutes. A tall and strong striker like Llorente would fit the profile.
