Real Madrid may pursue two players in January if Mourinho's squad struggles

Real Madrid could consider signing a centre-back and a midfielder in January if José Mourinho's team underperforms early in the season. Despite having completed six summer signings, Mourinho has indicated satisfaction with his current squad but acknowledged potential areas for improvement. Reports suggest that if the team's dynamics fail to meet expectations, further investment may be necessary, altering Real Madrid's typical approach to the winter transfer window. The early months will serve as a test to gauge player performance and tactical fit.
