The transfer rumors at Real Madrid have reached a peak with the injury to Vinicius Jr., making reinforcements on the offensive front urgently needed. However, despite names such as Vlahovic and Icardi being linked recently under Carlo Ancelotti’s direction, the Merengue club appear to be ruling out the possibility of signing these strikers in the winter market.
The two winter signings that Real Madrid ruled out
Speculation about the arrival of Icardi and Vlahovic is on everyone’s lips, fueling the expectations of Real Madrid fans. However, according to the latest information, Real Madrid is not planning any significant moves in this winter market, neither with these two strikers nor with others.
The club’s president, Florentino Pérez, has made it clear that he prefers not to make any new signings in January. Although the need to strengthen the squad is obvious, Pérez was reluctant to make appearances during this period, a decision that could complicate the team’s situation in the second half of the season.
The names Vlahovic and Icardi, who came from Juventus and Galatasaray respectively, had raised expectations among Madrid fans. However, according to sources at Madrid Universal, these options are virtually ruled out unless Florentino Pérez changes his mind.
Carlo Ancelotti is faced with the task of working with the strikers available in the squad, including Brahim Díaz, Joselu and Rodrygo. Even though Brahim has only had a few minutes of action so far this season, the lack of new signings could give him a significant opportunity.
In the unpredictable world of football, decisions can change quickly and although Florentino Pérez has shown firmness in his stance, a turn of events cannot be completely ruled out if an opportunity arises that the president considers irresistible. The winter transfer window hasn’t closed yet and Real Madrid could surprise everyone with a last-minute move.
