Raul hailed the quality of current Real Madrid squad and doesn’t feel that Zidane need to dip in the transfer market and bring new players ahead of the new seasons, as he already has a fairly balanced team at his disposal.
“Last year the team was competitive and won the Champions League. You can’t ask for more. But Zizou has played in Madrid and knows that what’s been done in the past doesn’t matter much,” Raul said, AS reports.

“This season there are great trophies at stake and Zidane has the capacity and hopefully with this squad Madrid can go for everything. He’s happy. Everything has gone well in these early days. They’re accumulating work and hopefully the first game is a great game.
“There haven’t been big signings this summer, no. Madrid have a great squad and some young players have entered the team. It’s a decision of the coaching staff and the players. I think all the players in the squad have the excitement of playing for Madrid, to be successful and earn their place.
“To be in the Madrid squad is very important and you have to demonstrate that in every training session and take advantage of the opportunities you’re given. I like the current squad, but it’s a decision of the club and the Coach, they’re the ones who decide, but the squad is great, with a lot of talent.”
