Guti believes that Real Madrid is making very good moves in this transfer market.
Josรฉ Marรญa Gutiรฉrrez, better known asย Gutiย , has spoken about Real Madrid’s signings so far. The former player is always an authoritative voice when it comes to analyzing the club’s current situation. He is satisfied with the moves made by the team presided over by Florentino Pรฉrez.
“Real Madrid is strengthening well. In recent years there were deficiencies in defense due to injuries, and what they wanted was to start from the bottom and create a solid defensive structure . Up front they already have enough,” said the legendary number ’14’ on the microphones of Carrusel Deportivo, a program on Cadena SER.
Sources within Valdebebas acknowledge that one of the objectives for this transfer window is to reinforce the defense. They assert that this position has been causing numerous problems for several seasons and that several players have been severely hampered by injuries . This is the case with Rรผdiger, who, despite renewing his contract, will have a less prominent role, and with Militao.
Part of that work, as Guti rightly points out, has already been completed, since the signings ofย
Konatรฉ and Cucurellaย have been finalized .ย Dumfriesย will also join the club, although his signing has not yet been officially announced.
One more signing is expected for the defense
Those who believe Real Madrid still needs some tweaking can rest easy. Josรฉ Mourinho , who will manage the team starting next season, has already told the board he wants another center-back . The Portuguese manager is having a significant influence on both player signings and departures.
In this particular case, names like Nico Schlotterbeck and Alessandro Bastoni are gaining increasing traction. The player from Setรบbal, in particular, admires Rรบben Dias and would like to have him on his team, but he’s aware that it’s a rather complex operation. His compatriot is a key player for Manchester City and, so far, those at the Etihad aren’t considering letting him go.
Schlotterbeck and Bastoni, affordable
Both the German and the Italian have contracts with their respective clubs, but that doesn’t mean they couldn’t wear the Real Madrid jersey in a few months. The former renewed his contract with Borussia Dortmund until 2031, although he has a release clause that would allow him to leave for around โฌ60 million. The situation is similar for the latter, although Inter Milan values โโhim at around โฌ70 million. In both cases, as you can see, everything could be resolved with a significant offer . Florentino Pรฉrez will have the final say.
