Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has asked the club’s president to try to sign three more players while the transfer window is open.
Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has taken all his new signings, barring Eder Militao to North America for his side’s matches in the International Champions Cup. All of them will be test driven during the friendlies as the players look to bounce back from a 2018-19 season that has been absolutely horrible for the club.

According to Diario GOL, the first team manager still has some requests and all of them are for his engine room. Christian Eriksen is the first player on the Whites’ radar. Though Zidane is not a big fan of the Denmark international, he is okay with the club moving for his services. Dani Ceballos and roughly 50 million euros could be sent his way as part of the deal.
Paul Pogba still continues to be a priority for the Frenchman despite Ole Gunnar Solskjaer insisting that there have been no offers made for the World Cup winner. Pogba is looked up to by Zinedine Zidane and the Madrid boss is willing to pay even 180 million euros and sacrifice Isco in order to bring the former Juventus man into the Bernabeu.
Lastly, Zidane wants Florentino Perez to sign one of two midfielders who will definitely be assets in the future. The 47-year-old has already seen Barcelona snap up Frenkie de Jong and Arthur Melo, so this time out, he wants Real Madrid to react by signing either Ajax Amsterdam’s Donny van de Beek or Napoli’s Fabian Ruiz.
Van de Beek has been valued at 65 million euros by the Dutch giants, but Los Blancos don’t want to pay in excess of 50 million euros, so making a move for the Spanish U21 international Fabian Ruiz could be fruitful. Ruiz would be absolutely open to leaving the Italians and joining Real Madrid if an offer comes his way.
