Mourinho rules out Real Madrid signings

Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho has ruled out signing any new players in the January transfer window. The Portuguese coach had been linked with a move for Man City striker Carlos Tevez, but it appears Real will be closed for business in this transfer window.

Mourinho told the official Real Madrid website: "We’re not in the market. It will be open for a month and I understand it’s a sort of game for some. The press has to sell, and players and agents also move during the window. It is an opportunity that presents itself for those who need it, but fortunately we don’t.


"Practically all my men are in shape to start the second half of the season. The Board worked hard to build this squad, to give us the necessary means to fight for what we’re fighting for.


"The window is closed for us. I don’t want any players. I haven’t asked for one and I’m not going to."
