What happened to Madrid
🚨 Real Madrid’s reasons for another NO in the winter transfer market:
• The club believes the squad is strong and deep enough to compete for La Liga & the Champions League.
• Madrid have not signed anyone in January for 7 years - the last was Brahim Díaz (€17m).
• Despite a clear injury crisis, the board never considered winter reinforcements.
• Recent failures (Spanish Super Cup loss & early Copa del Rey exit) did not change the plan.
• Instead of signings, Madrid focused on internal fixes, with Niko Mihic returning to the medical staff and Antonio Pintus taking charge of fitness.
• The squad has 23 registered players, and the club even preferred to reduce numbers, not add.
• The only possible move was Fran García to Bournemouth, but Madrid ultimately blocked his exit.
