According to reports, di club dey set to sign Ibrahima Konate from Liverpool, Marc Cucurella from Chelsea, and Denzel Dumfries from Inter Milan. Konate, wey be France international, get Champions League experience and don win titles. Kylian Mbappe even talk say Konate na very aggressive defender wey go make opponent feel like dem dey for rough night.
Cucurella, wey play key role for Spain wen dem win Euro 2024, dey expected to take left-back position. Dumfries, di Netherlands international, na di kind player wey fit play for Mourinho style—defensively solid and no too glamorous.
For centre-back, Antonio Rudiger go likely start alongside Konate. Rudiger, wey don sign one-year extension, be di kind defender wey Mourinho like—slightly unhinged and ready to die for di cause. But because of Rudiger age and injury record, Madrid fit still sign another centre-back. Riccardo Calafiori and Josko Gvardiol don dey mentioned for Spanish press.
Dani Carvajal don finally leave di club, wey give Mourinho clean slate after dia fractious relationship 13 years ago. Trent Alexander-Arnold go still dey around but fit become rotational option and wildcard off di bench.
