Real Madrid not making new signings unless player exits
Summary

Real Madrid has concluded most of its transfer business this summer and is not planning new signings unless a surprising player departure occurs. Manager Jose Mourinho has expressed satisfaction with the current squad but acknowledged the need for potential additions in midfield and defense. Initial talks have been held for possible targets, including Martin Zubimendi and previously desired Rodri. While there is no immediate requirement for a new midfielder, the team's recent performance has highlighted a lack of game control and creativity. As the transfer window progresses, Real Madrid is prepared to act quickly should an unexpected sale take place.
