Why Real Madrid aren’t going to sign Jamal Musiala or Florian Wirtz
Real Madrid have traditionally approached the summer transfer window with the idea that they want to sign the biggest superstar in world football, unless if there is nobody who qualifies as a big superstar, they are currently working to sign that superstar in a later window, or they have no space in their squad to even feasibly accommodate another top player.
In 2019, Real Madrid signed Eden Hazard from Chelsea. In 2020, they didn't sign anyone because of the pandemic. In 2021, they thought they had Kylian Mbappe signed. In 2022, they also thought they had Kylian Mbappe signed. In 2023, they signed Jude Bellingham knowing they wouldn't be able to sign Kylian Mbappe that summer. And in 2024, they finally signed Kylian Mbappe.
Even though Florentino Perez just snagged his "white whale"...
