Okay, so I think it's safe to say that it has been long - Years- that Real Madrid had went through a season start without bringing in a single player for several millions. But the fact is that the only new acquisitions in the Real Madrid squad towards the new season is only young Norwegian Martin Ödegaard, who has returned on loan from the Basque side, Real Sociedad. However, with the ongoing Pandemic which has caused a huge crisis in the transfer market, Real Madrid have even been lucky that all the names on the wish list have chosen to stay in their respective clubs one more season.

The Spanish newspaper Marca predicts that Real Madrid will be save on the financial strength of this window, which instead we help go all in in the summer of 2021, with three French players on top of the secret wish list for Zinedine Zidane.

In Red Bull Leipzig, the young Dayot Upamecano manages the defense with a tough hand and several big strikers have gotten to know the Frenchman. The 21-year-old central cliff was rumored to several different top clubs in this window - including the English champions, Liverpool, but it instead became a short contract extension for "Upa". Therefore, it is unlikely that he will change club already this season, but in the summer of 2021, the time may be up for the Frenchman. And here Real Madrid will try to be at the front of the queue.

Dayot Upamecano is an outspoken fan of Sergio Ramos, and he will thus be able to get under the wings of the Real Madrid captain and become the direct replacement when Sergio Ramos at some point puts his boots on the shelf.

For the midfield, "Los Blancos" has chosen the mere 17-year-old defensive warrior Eduardo Camavinga from the French Stade Rennais. Here, however, there may be a major transfer war, as PSG and Bayern Munich have both started flirting with the young player.

After the breakthrough last season, Eduardo Camavinga has not renewed his contract with Rennes, and when they play the Champions League this season, the price will probably only grow on the great talent who has already been around the French national team. According to the newspaper AS, Rennes and Eduardo Camavinga should have an agreement that the player can go after the season for around €150 million. At Real Madrid, Eduardo Camavinga is seen as the ideal replacement for Casemiro.

Finally, there is star striker Kylian Mbappé. Much has already been said and written about the saga with Real Madrid and Kylian Mbappé and this is expected to intensify in the coming season. With coach Zinedine Zidane in front, the club have not hidden their declarations of love for Kylian Mbappé, and the player has repeatedly confirmed that the flirtation has been reciprocated.

As the 2020/21 season progresses, interest will probably only get hotter and hotter. The striker has not renewed his contract with PSG (which expires in 2022), which could push the price down to a level where Real Madrid does not come into conflict with Financial Fair Play.

According to Marca, Real Madrid's transfer strategy runs until the summer of 2022, where they hope to lure Erling Håland away from Dortmund and to the Spanish capital together with the hired Brazilian Reinier, who will form a teammate with the Norwegian lightning striker for the next two seasons.

An exciting time awaits the defending Spanish champions.
