Real Madrid Holds Off on World Cup Transfer Moves

Real Madrid has indicated that its transfer activity is largely settled, choosing not to act on World Cup stand‑outs Enzo Fernández of Chelsea or Manchester City midfielder Rodri despite their strong performances in the 2026 tournament. The club says it is waiting for clearer market conditions and is not swayed by agent rumors.

French forward Kylian Mbappé, who failed to score in France’s loss to Spain, also returns to a Madrid side under pressure, but the team has not made any new signings for him either. Overall, the Spanish giants remain cautious, focusing on existing squad stability rather than pursuing immediate acquisitions.
