It’s challenging to overlook Real Madrid’s draw against Mallorca last night, but this result won’t alter the club’s plans for the remainder of the transfer window. Ahead of the Mallorca game, Carlo Ancelotti stated: “The team is complete, and we just need to wait for the next 12 days. We don’t need additional defenders; Alaba will recover quickly, and we have young players ready to step up. Although Juan is injured, Jacobo and Asensio can also contribute in various matches.”
Nevertheless, the draw has fueled speculation about signing a midfielder before the transfer window closes. According to Defensa Central, Bayern Munich is looking to offload Leon Goretzka and is actively offering him to interested teams. Bayern is asking for €40 million but might accept €30 million. Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, and Napoli are aware of this offer, as Bayern has reached out to them. Despite Goretzka’s previous appeal to Carlo Ancelotti, the club is currently focused on securing a defender, leading Florentino Pérez to pass on the opportunity to sign Goretzka.
