This summer has been the quieter in 13 years for Real Madrid. Since 2003, when Real Madrid signed David Beckham after lifting the 9th Champions League, Los Blancos have always spent more money in the summer transfer window. This time, there were no ‘Galácticos’ for Florentino, who could only use the Santiago Bernabéu stadium to unveil Asenso and Morata.

Florentino Pérez only spent €30M this year when he executed the re-buy clause for Álvaro Morata, who came back from Juventus. Marco Asensio has also joined the club after a season on loan at Espanyol and Mariano Díaz will play with the first squad after being promoted by Zinedine Zidane. Fabio Coentrao stays finally at Real Madrid despite having the opportunity to sign for Inter Milan.

Despite there were a lot of rumours around Real Madrid, especially in the midfield position, the board decided to not sign anybody. Moussa Sissoko, N’Golo Kanté, Paul Pogba or Bernardo Silva didn’t finish the summer at Bernabéu.

However, Real Madrid supporters have reason to be happy after this transfer market. Nobody important in the squad left the club. Isco and James Rodríguez, whose situation lead to think that they might leave Real Madrid, finally stayed in the squad despite having big offers from important clubs.

Florentino Pérez has taken a wise decision. The squad didn’t need any big players and adding other stars to the team might have caused several problems to Zinedine Zidane. At the moment, the manager has two players for each position in the pitch, except in the stopper position, where Casemiro is the only player available.

Now, after winning the first three official games of the season, Zidane has a full squad to fight for all the titles. In a long squad with 24 footballers, everybody needs to feel important in the team. Zidane has a big challenge with the best squad Real Madrid has had in years.
