His inclusion and a potential Mbappe transfer leaves them with these players in 2024:
- Endrick (17)
- Guler (18)
- Camavinga (20)
- Bellingham (20)
- Rodrygo (22)
- Vini Jr (23)
- Davies (23)
- Tchouameni (23)
- Mbappe (24)
- Valverde (25)
- Militao (25)
That is 11 of some of the best U-25 talents in world football. Many of these players are straight up Ballon D’or contenders as well as best in their position even at a young age.
Add in squad members like Ceballos (26), Brahim (24), Fran Garcia (23), and even players on loan/50% rights like Kubo (23), Reinier (21).
Is the squad Real Madrid building the best in the world and worthy for the title of ‘Galacticos’ in modern setting?
I don’t think the term Galacticos fit just since the OG galacticos were big names before they came to Real Madrid and it felt like they were assembling a super team, this current Real Madrid are just building a young team of top talent that they still need to develop for the most part. It’s a great team which I expect to be a force for many many years but like galacticos is a very specific term
I totally agree with you
