Chus Mateo asks for signings for his Real Madrid

The defeat of Real Madrid last Sunday, September 22, in the Supercopa Endesa final by 80-90 against a powerful Unicaja has revealed that the squad of the white team has weakened in this transfer window. The retirement of legends Rudy Fernández and Sergio Rodríguez, the return of Guerschon Yabusele to the NBA, and the departure of Vincent Poirier to Anadolu Efes have created a void in Chus Mateo's ranks that, for now, the new additions fail to fill.

The arrivals of Serge Ibaka, Usman Garuba, Andres Feliz, and Xavier Rathan-Mayes do not seem enough to raise the team's level of play and position them as favorites against rivals in the Liga Endesa, let alone in an increasingly competitive EuroLeague.

The Madrid board and coach must explore the market and add as soon as possible the piece that will help them regain the status of favorite in all competitions. Star players like Evan Fournier, Cedi Osman, and Davis Bertans were strongly linked to joining Real Madrid's project, but Olympiacos, Panathinaikos, and Dubai respectively beat them to their signings.

"We need more players to face the brutal physical demands of a season with 90 games," predicted Chus Mateo.

The truth is, a star signing would not only bring back excitement to the fans but also restore the team as one of the main contenders at the European level.
