Real Madrid is intensifying its efforts in the summer transfer market for 2026 under the leadership of new head coach José Mourinho, who recently took charge of the team.

Club president Florentino Pérez confirmed the acquisition of Ibrahima Konaté and Denzel Dumfries for Real Madrid, although official announcements regarding these signings have yet to be made.

In related news, reports indicate that the club has finalized an agreement with Bernardo Silva to join on a free transfer following the expiration of his contract with Manchester City last season.

In a significant development, renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Real Madrid has reached a verbal agreement with Chelsea for the signing of Spanish left-back Marc Cucurella during this transfer window.

Romano clarified that the agreement involves all parties, including Cucurella himself, who is currently participating with the Spanish national team in the World Cup.

Cucurella is expected to officially leave Chelsea following his World Cup commitments and join Real Madrid, fulfilling Mourinho’s strong desire to strengthen the left-back position at Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.
