José Mourinho wants more signings at Real Madrid to complete his squad and desires a center-back and midfielder before the market closes, even though the sporting management considers the chapter of incorporations practically finished. According to Siro López, the Portuguese coach could show his displeasure if he ultimately does not receive any of these two reinforcements.

Madrid faces the final stretch after making six signings and spending around 225 million euros. Dumfries, Konaté, Cucurella, Bernardo Silva, Carlos Espí, and Diomande have arrived during a summer in which Florentino Pérez has also financed part of the expenses through numerous sales of youth players.

José Mourinho still asks for a center-back and midfielder

The two positions pointed out by José Mourinho are central defense and midfield. Since June, it was reported that the coach wanted to strengthen these areas after receiving reinforcements like Dumfries, Konaté, and Bernardo Silva, several of the players he had requested during the planning.

The request for another center-back gains more importance due to the absences. Éder Militao continues to recover from physical problems, and Raúl Asencio will be out for around six weeks due to a rectus femoris injury. Mourinho currently has Rüdiger, Huijsen, and Konaté as first-team center-backs for the start of LaLiga.

The immediate alternative lies in the academy. Joan Martínez and Mario Rivas have trained with the first team during preparation and appear as solutions to complete matchday squads while the injured players return. This approach would allow the club to avoid a new investment in defense.

Real Madrid has the midfield position more covered

The scenario is different in midfield. Bernardo Silva has been tested by Mourinho in the double pivot alongside Camavinga and completed 40 out of 40 passes in the first half of the friendly against Deportivo, a test used by the coaching staff to assess his adaptation to that position.

Additionally, the coach has Tchouaméni, Valverde, Camavinga, Arda Güler, and Thiago Pitarch for various roles in midfield. The latter will continue working with the first team despite being registered with Castilla, a decision made with Mourinho's support. There is talk of 3 more signings possibly coming to Real Madrid.

Therefore, the signing of a midfielder seems currently dependent on a departure. The latest reports suggest that another player for that position is not considered unless the situation of Camavinga changes, while Bernardo will continue to accumulate minutes in the double pivot.

Siro López maintains that Mourinho can adapt to the squad provided by the club, but also warns that the Portuguese could express disagreement if his last two requests go unanswered. The coach has already received several requested signings during the summer, and Madrid now has a short squad, another of his preferences.

The final decision will depend on Florentino Pérez and the possible departures that may occur before the deadline. If Real Madrid retains the current squad, José Mourinho will start LaLiga with the academy as support in defense and Bernardo as one of the midfield solutions; any new addition will first require creating space within the group.
