Sell three, save two! ChatGPT delivers a ruthless verdict on Real Madrid's squad
ChatGPT has reportedly drawn up a controversial list of players Real Madrid should keep and sell.
Details: A post circulating on social media presents what it describes as ChatGPT's advice to Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez. According to the published list, the chatbot recommends selling three players: Brahim Díaz, Ferland Mendy and Antonio Rüdiger. However, the AI's alleged verdict on several other members of the squad is considerably more forgiving.
The list suggests that Ukrainian goalkeeper Andriy Lunin should only be sold if he personally requests a departure. Otherwise, the club should retain the shot-stopper.
Perhaps the most surprising recommendation concerns Brazilian stars Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo. Despite the heavy criticism both players have recently faced, the published response argues that Real Madrid should keep them rather than consider selling either forward.
Importantly, there is no confirmation that Pérez actually requested this advice or that the club is considering the recommendations. The list represents a purported AI-generated opinion shared online, not an official transfer strategy.
It is worth noting that, according to Real Madrid's official website, Brahim Díaz has made nine appearances in the 2026/27 season, providing two assists. Meanwhile, Rüdiger's contract with the Spanish giants runs until June 30, 2027.
