Jose Mourinho requests five signings ahead of Real Madrid return

Real Madrid's elections today could determine the future of the club, with Florentino Perez likely to retain control. If elected, Jose Mourinho is set to return as manager and has requested five key signings for the summer transfer window, including Bernardo Silva, Ibrahima Konate, Denzel Dumfries, Riccardo Calafiori, and Matheus Fernandez. Two transfers are reportedly already finalized pending official confirmation. Florentino Perez aims to reinvigorate the squad by potentially securing a 'Galactic' signing worth at least €150 million, targeting Michael Olise, should he win the elections. The outcome of the elections will immediately influence the club's transfer strategy and structure.
