Real Madrid

The current holders of La Liga and Champions League titles are forever in the market for the best players on the planet. With Florentino Perez filling the role of club president, that <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/what-galactico-ronaldo-beckham-all-real-madrids-super-signings/1lrrb6x9j0n9f1actzefqw47am" target="_blank">recruitment model has been in place at Santiago Bernabeu</a> for some time.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Real have previously acquired the likes of Zinedine Zidane, Ronaldo, Luis Figo, David Beckham, Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka, while <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/kylian-mbappe-eye-popping-signing-on-bonus-real-madrid-transfer/bltde800d97639ecd1a" target="_blank">Kylian Mbappe has become the latest global superstar</a> to agree a switch to the Spanish capital.

According to <a href="https://www.sport.es/es/noticias/real-madrid/haaland-queda-sitio-real-madrid-103549079 " target="_blank">SPORT</a>, Real are no longer in a rush to explore those options and bring <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/erling-haaland-kylian-mbappe-vinicius-jr-real-madrid-julio-baptista-why-florentino-perez-reform-galacticos/bltc906ab1a09494a07" target="_blank">Haaland in alongside Mbappe, Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo</a>.

That is because they also have <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/real-madrid-plans-brazilian-wonderkid-endrick-palmeiras-loan-transfer/blt0c4f40c72d0338a1" target="_blank">Brazilian wonderkid Endrick on the way</a>, with a deal about to be completed for the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/crazy-endrick-shrugs-off-pele-comparisons-real-madrid-bound-wonderkid-emulates-brazil-great-mexico/blt62411664f3a77fcc" target="_blank">South American sensation</a> as he prepares to turn 18.
