The week spent in the Algarve has helped Rafa Benítez to prepare the discard list to transmit to the sports management, so that they can find a way out for those players who do not fit into the plans of the Madrid coach. The training sessions of these first three weeks of work and the friendlies played against Al Nassr and Benfica have been fundamental in drawing the final conclusions.
The first to leave will be Rubén Blanco, although this operation was already underway before the arrival of the new coach. The goalkeeper’s destination will be Olympique d Marseille, where he was on loan last season, an exit that will open the door to a new goalkeeper. The bet in this demarcation will be important, with a reinforcement of carats. Thus, Iván Villar will remain as second goalkeeper and Marchesín will have to compete when he recovers from the serious injury he suffered in February.
The players who are on the wire are those who returned from loan, such as Carreira, Fontán and Baeza, and the footballers who had less prominence last season, see Swedberg and Paciencia. Nevertheless, It is likely that Renato Tapia and Franco Cervi will also appear on the discard list, with whom Celta intends to make some cash. If there is any surprise, which is not expected, it will be known throughout this week.
