Real Madrid’s Mourinho happy with squad despite losing out on Rodri
Los Blancos revamped their squad this summer, signing six players, including record arrival Yan Diomande, Bernardo Silva and Marc Cucurella.
Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho expressed satisfaction with his squad, considering it complete despite failing to sign midfielder Rodri. The club bolstered its roster this summer by signing six players, including record signing Yan Diomande, Bernardo Silva, and Marc Cucurella. Mourinho stated that while he believes the squad is closed, the transfer market remains open for unexpected opportunities.
The coach emphasized his contentment with the current players, noting that he has not inquired about additional transfers. With the departure of midfield legends Luka Modric and Toni Kroos, Real Madrid has faced challenges in controlling matches. Mourinho's team secured a 2-1 victory against Espanyol in their La Liga opener, with Silva and Federico Valverde playing together in midfield.
Aurelien Tchouameni, a French defensive midfielder, was not ready to start against Real Sociedad due to holiday-related recovery issues. Mourinho expressed confidence in Valverde's ability to play in various positions, highlighting Tchouameni's readiness to return fully fit.
