After Real Madrid’s disappointing season, Álvaro Arbeloa’s future at the club appears to be uncertain. In response, José Mourinho emerges as a clear candidate to lead the team. However, the Portuguese has reportedly not been contacted by Los Blancos. Real Madrid are not enjoying a strong season, sitting nine points behind Barcelona in LaLiga and already eliminated from the Champions League. As a result, Álvaro Arbeloa’s future is reportedly in doubt, as he has not managed to get the most out of the squad. In this context, José Mourinho has emerged as a strong candidate to take over next season. However, the Portuguese manager has reportedly not been contacted by Los Blancos. According to Manuel Bruna, via Mundo Deportivo, Real Madrid already approached José Mourinho in December 2025, when they dismissed Xabi Alonso, seeking for him to take charge of the team. However, he rejected the proposal, focusing on finishing the season with Benfica. Following their Champions League elimination, Arbeloa’s future is now in doubt, with the Portuguese manager once again emerging as a real option for the summer of 2026. Far from being a certainty, Los Blancos have not yet contacted Mourinho again, raising doubts about whether it is a concrete possibility. Nevertheless, the veteran coach would be open to listening to a potential proposal from Real Madrid, as he maintains an excellent relationship with president Florentino Pérez. Additionally, the Portuguese’s return does not generate full consensus within the front office, which further complicates his potential arrival. With a few months still ahead, Real Madrid may still be considering the possibility of reaching an agreement with Mourinho, hoping he can turn the team’s fortunes around. Furthermore, his experience is key, as Xabi Alonso and Álvaro Arbeloa failed to impress due to their youth and lack of experience. However, the Portuguese coach is under contract with SL Benfica until June 2027, so his departure could prove somewhat complicated. Alvaro Arbeloa, Head Coach of Real Madrid, speaks to Jose Mourinho, Head Coach of Benfica.

According to Mario Cortegana, via The Athletic, USMNT head coach Mauricio Pochettino is highly regarded by Real Madrid’s front office. In addition, president Florentino Pérez greatly admires him, and with his contract set to expire after the 2026 World Cup. Alongside the Argentine, Didier Deschamps is also highly valued for his excellent impact with France and his vast experience in managing strong personalities within the dressing room.

Dominik Szoboszlai has managed to establish as one of Liverpool’s most important players, leading the scoring and defensive side. As a result, the Reds have made his renewal a priority for the project’s development. However, the Hungarian has provided a concerning update about his future. In the middle of Liverpool’s disastrous season, Dominik Szoboszlai has emerged as the most important player on the team. Not only does he shine on a creative level, but also on a defensive level. Because of this, the Reds have made his renewal a priority to secure his continuity amid Mohamed Salah’s departure. However, Dominik broke the silence about his future, leaving some worrying statements. “There has been no real progression, so I cannot say anything new about my contract situation… As you guys know, my contract ends in 2028, so I am ready to go every day, every week, and then let’s see… Of course I see myself here in the long term, but it is not really in my hands any more… I love being here. I love the fans… We have five games to go. Then I am going to rest – a big one, after my international break. Then we will see,” Szoboszlai said after the latest game. While Dominik Szoboszlai is an attacking midfielder, he has also played as a right-back, central midfielder, and even as a right winger, excelling in all of them. In 48 matches this season, the Hungarian has recorded 12 goals and 9 assists. As a result, he stands as the team’s second-highest scorer, alongside Mohamed Salah, and the second-highest assist provider, highlighting his significant impact at Liverpool. Following the departures of Mohamed Salah and Andrew Robertson, Szoboszlai has emerged as a clear candidate to take on a greater leadership role in the dressing room. In fact, Virgil van Dijk has already made it clear that the Hungarian would be one of his top choices to become the next captain in the near future. Therefore, Liverpool appear determined to move closer in negotiations with Dominik and establish him as a cornerstone of their sporting project. Dominik Szoboszlai of Liverpool Dominik Szoboszlai may be tempted to join Real Madrid Throughout his professional career, Dominik Szoboszlai has consistently been monitored by Real Madrid, being regarded as a game-changing player. While the Hungarian is currently a Liverpool star, Los Blancos are reportedly keeping a close eye on his contractual situation, considering him as a potential signing. In addition, Hungary’s head coach, Marco Rossi, acknowledged that the 25-year-old star has a dream of playing for the Spanish side. “Due to the very close and direct relationship I have with Dominik Szoboszlai since he started playing soccer as a child, Real Madrid has always been his dream. Dominik, since he began playing soccer, has had only one dream: to play for Real Madrid,” Marco Rossi revealed a few months ago. With this in mind, Los Blancos could have an advantage in persuading the Hungarian in the event of a potential transfer. Holding a contract until 2028, Liverpool have a significant advantage in securing his continued tenure, potentially offering him a key role in the roster and a substantial salary boost. With Federico Valverde, Jude Bellingham, and Arda Guler in the mix, the 25-year-old midfielder might not play a pivotal role within that group, a position he nearly secures with the Reds. For this reason, Dominik might opt to renew his contract in the coming months.

With his contract expiring in June 2026, Ibrahima Konaté had emerged as a target for Real Madrid. However, the French defender now appears to be moving away from the Spanish side, acknowledging that he is close to renewing his contract with Liverpool after several months of speculation. Ibrahima Konaté’s future has been one of the longest-running storylines at Liverpool this season. With his contract expiring in June 2026, he emerged as a target for Real Madrid as a potential free transfer reinforcement. However, the Frenchman now appears to be moving away from the Spanish side. Instead, the 26-year-old center-back has acknowledged that he is close to renewing with the Reds, effectively putting an end to speculation about his future. “There are many things people have said but for a long time we have spoken with the club and we are close to an agreement. I think everyone wished for that for as long as possible but we are in a good way. For sure there is a big chance I’m here next season…I’m waiting to sort the contract but when everything is sorted you will have to ask Richard what I said to him in September, November and he’s going to say something to make everyone quiet,” Konaté said, after the latest game. With his contract renewal now quite close, Ibrahima Konaté is moving away from Real Madrid, who are reportedly searching for a reliable defender. While the Frenchman was considered a strong option, Los Blancos were not fully convinced by his high salary demands. In addition, the 26-year-old has established as a leader in defense alongside Virgil van Dijk, becoming a key figure for Arne Slot at Liverpool FC as they build for the future. Following Konaté’s refusal, Real Madrid will be forced to look elsewhere, with Nico Schlotterbeck still on their radar. Despite recently renewing with Borussia Dortmund, the German reportedly has a €50–60M clause valid for both Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. Alongside him, the potential return of Jacobo Ramón or a move for Cristian Romero remain alternative options, further reducing the chances of Ibrahima’s arrival. Warren Zaire-Emery of Paris Saint-Germain is tackled by Ibrahima Konate of Liverpool. Ibrahima Konate lined up as Van Dijk’s successor at Liverpool Liverpool are not experiencing their best season, having been eliminated from the UEFA Champions League and struggling in the Premier League. While Ibrahima Konaté has shown inconsistent performances at times, he has managed to regain form and has emerged as an undisputed starter for Arne Slot. Following progress in his contract renewal talks, the French defender is now seen as the long-term successor to Virgil van Dijk. While van Dijk is still an undisputed starter for the Reds, he is reportedly set to leave the club in 2027. As a result, Ibrahima Konaté is emerging as his successor in terms of leadership at the back, especially with young defenders like Giovanni Leoni and Jérémy Jacquet still developing, and Joe Gomez also expected to be sold. In addition, the Frenchman has proven to be one of the most impactful players in the squad, leaving the team in capable hands defensively.
