Real Madrid has assembled a heavily reinforced squad ahead of the 2026–27 campaign under returning head coach José Mourinho, according to a squad report published by Sports Mole. Following a two-season stretch without securing a major trophy, club leadership authorized a significant squad overhaul during the summer transfer window to mount immediate challenges in both La Liga and the UEFA Champions League.

According to data compiled by Sports Mole, Real Madrid’s total spending for the summer 2026 transfer window reached £205m.

- Marc Cucurella: Signed from Chelsea for £52m to bolster the left-back position.
- Denzel Dumfries: Transferred from Inter Milan for £17m to reinforce the right-back slot.
- Ibrahima Konaté: Secured on a free transfer following the expiration of his contract with Liverpool.
- Bernardo Silva: Joined on a free transfer after leaving Manchester City.

To balance the incoming arrivals and offset outlays, Real Madrid generated £45.9m in player sales and departures, resulting in a summer net spend of £159.1m, as reported by Sports Mole.
Notable departures include striker Gonzalo García, who transferred to Fulham for £34.3m, and midfielder César Palacios, who joined the same Premier League club for £8.6m. Additional squad adjustments involved Mario Martín transferring to Getafe for £3m, while Franco Mastantuono departed on loan to Fiorentina.
