da pinnacle： Even though they were linked to a number of different targets already, it seems that Real Madrid won’t be splashing the cash in the upcoming transfer window, as per new reports coming from AS.
While that’s likely to come as a minor disappointment to supporters, this could still be a good thing for Zinedine Zidane’s squad.
On the chalkboard
As we approach the opening of the January transfer window, rumours start pilling up.
And this is especially true for the biggest European clubs who are always on the hunt to add to their squad with mega-signings, if reports are to be believed.

Of course, Real Madrid are definitely one of those clubs but it seems that Florentino Perez, their president, has decided to “cancel” the winter market and skip it entirely, giving Zidane the chance to make something out of the squad they assembled last summer.
And even though this Real Madrid team does need reinforcement in certain areas, this should be seen as a positive because it could give the Frenchman a chance to solve one of his key issues of the ongoing campaign.
Finding the perfect formula
Zidane and the troubles of finding his starting XI are nothing particularly new.
After all, this issue seems to be a persisting one that has haunted the Frenchman ever since the beginning of the 2019/20 campaign.
And unfortunately for Real Madrid, it’s something he still hasn’t been able to solve to this day.

In fact, the game against Galatasaray in the Champions League saw the Frenchman use his 12th unique lineup in as many games the Galacticos played until that point.
Clearly, injuries and suspension have played a part in that but it’s still quite a big problem.
Adding new players to that squad mid-season, however, could potentially unbalance it even more.
But with Zidane getting a full season to work with the players that he already has at his disposal, he should have enough time to find the perfect formula he’s been searching for all along.
After all, the Galacticos have spent quite a lot of money on signings already and there is definitely quality in that squad.
Getting them to gel and dance to Zidane’s tune are the details that are currently missing and that sort of thing cannot really be fixed with new people joining them.
If anything, that would make the Frenchman’s job that much more difficult at this particular point in time.
So looking at it from that point of view, this transfer update might still be a blessing in disguise for Los Blancos.
Let’s see if Zidane can make the best of it.
