According to reports in the La Liga press, Real Madrid are not done with the transfer market and are looking to sign several new signings to strengthen their squad for the upcoming season.

According to reports, led by reports from Spanish newspaper AS, the Spanish club wants to sign an additional midfielder for next season in order to strengthen the entire system from the defence to the attacking line.

Manchester City's first star in Madrid's eyes

According to Spanish newspaper AS, the player that Madrid wants to sign is Manchester City's Spanish player Rodri, because the technical management of the team, headed by Spanish coach Xabi Alonso, Real Madrid's ultimate goal is to strengthen the centre-back position and it seems that Rodri is still prioritised among Real Madrid's options to strengthen this position.

The newspaper said that Real Madrid do not see the player's age as a disadvantage, knowing that they signed Zinedine Zidane at the same age, and that the management sees the player as a leader in addition to the skills and technical abilities he possesses.

Real Madrid's midfield wishlist extends beyond Manchester City's Rodri, with three other elite names under consideration, according to reports. The Spanish giants have set their sights on Inter Milan's Nicolò Barella and Premier League duo Enzo Fernández (Chelsea) and Alexis Mac Allister (Liverpool).

However, securing any of these targets appears challenging, as all three players are considered untouchable core assets by their current clubs and remain tied to long-term contracts. The difficulty of these potential deals lies in both the contractual situations and the unwillingness of their teams to negotiate departures.
