Real Madrid: The 3 biggest concerns heading into 2021
Real Madrid are riding high on a six-game winning streak, but there are still issues to address in 2021.
After Zinedine Zidane was thrust onto the hot seat following a few inexcusable losses, Real Madrid finally picked up the pace. They have not looked back since responding with a win over Sevilla at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan, playing their best football in the subsequent five games despite fighting off fatigue and more injuries.
It hasn’t been an easy season for Real Madrid, but they have shown great heart and determination. They will like their chances of winning the league again despite being behind Atletico Madrid, as they defeated Los Rojiblancos convincingly in El Derbi. But there are still a few pressing concerns with the current side, particularly when it comes to the long-term planning of the squad.
Overall, the present and future are bright for Real Madrid, but with the standards set so high at the Santiago Bernabeu, everything must be analyzed carefully. Let’s take a look at Los Merengues’ three biggest concerns as we get closer to a new year and the second half of a season that promises to have a thrilling title chase between two rivals in Spain’s capital.
