Madrin strategist Jose Mourinho rejects the possibility of seeking reinforcements in the winter transfer window.
The Spanish vice champions were linked with players such as winger Gareth Bale, as well as strikers Wayne Rooney and Fernando Llorente. However, barring unforeseen circumstances, Real will be a passive observer in January.
"It's normal to talk about certain players," Mourinho said. "After all, Madrid is Madrid. The names of top footballers are mostly mentioned, because no one would believe in mediocrity."
"To me, this seems normal, but as a coach I can say that both my and the club's position on this issue coincide - the team will remain as it is until the end of the season. I trust the players we currently have."
"Real" has invested enough funds over the past few years. We don't have an ideal lineup, but it can't be perfect. Still, the team is great, so I don't see any point in participating in the market."
