La Liga
Florentino Pérez has reached a breaking point. After a year and a half of inconsistent results, poor sensations, and an evident loss of competitive identity, the president of Real Madrid believes it is time to take decisive action.
Externally, the club projects calmness, but internally there is genuine concern. The team's collective performance is well below the potential of the squad, and in an environment like that of Real Madrid, this cannot go on indefinitely.
Florentino Pérez points to the players
Florentino Pérez feels that part of the squad has become too comfortable. Some players, despite their talent, are not meeting the expected level of performance in LaLiga or on the major European stages.
For this reason, the club is already working on an initial internal list. It includes key players whose future will strictly depend on their performances from now until the end of the season. Among the names under scrutiny are heavyweights like Valverde, Camavinga, Bellingham, Rodrygo, Brahim, or Vinicius. The message is clear: credit is not eternal.
A second tier with less margin for error
Alongside these players, Real Madrid is also evaluating another distinct group. These are players who are not considered core and whose departure would not cause institutional upheaval. This category includes profiles like Alaba, Rüdiger, Fran García, or Ceballos. Their continuity is much more tied to immediate performance and future planning.
Expectations return to the core of the project
From the top, it is understood that, with the current resources, the team should be performing much better. Therefore, Florentino Pérez does not accept the lack of recent signings as an excuse. The president believes the issue is not just about quality but also about attitude. There will be no leniency if a radical change is not perceived in the coming months.

Álvaro Arbeloa, key player in the assessment
The role of Álvaro Arbeloa is crucial in this process. The coach is providing constant feedback on the team's competitive behavior, both in matches and in training.
His judgment will be decisive in determining who is committed to the project and who is not meeting the standards expected at Real Madrid.
Fear of the fans' reaction
Another concern for the club is the relationship with the fans. Historically, Madridismo has shown tolerance for mistakes but never for lack of effort. If there is no immediate response, some players will hear significant jeers at the Bernabéu. Such pressure typically marks a turning point in many careers.
A summer that will define an era
Although there are still opportunities in LaLiga and the Champions League, Florentino Pérez is already thinking about the future. The upcoming summer is crucial for reshaping the sports project. If the players do not step up now, they will no longer be untouchable. At Real Madrid, the crest always comes before the names, and Florentino Pérez is determined to emphasize that.
