Jose Mourinho Explores Internal Options and Summer Market Alternatives
Following a rare trophyless campaign, Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has launched an aggressive squad overhaul to re-establish dominance. The Spanish giants have already secured high-profile signings including Ibrahima Konate, Marc Cucurella, Bernardo Silva, and Denzel Dumfries. However, their primary offensive target, Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise, looks increasingly out of reach this summer.
According to reports from AS, manager Jose Mourinho is already drafting a contingency plan should the pursuit of the 24-year-old Frenchman collapse. The Bundesliga champions are determined to retain Olise, who is under contract until June 2029, and are even preparing a lucrative contract extension to fend off interest from Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain.

If the German side refuses to negotiate a release clause or transfer fee, Mourinho could turn to internal squad solutions. The Portuguese tactician has a wealth of technical profiles at his disposal, including Turkish prodigy Arda Guler and Brahim Diaz, alongside newly acquired Portuguese playmaker Bernardo Silva, Brazilian forward Rodrygo, and youngster Franco Mastantuono.
While Olise remains the dream reinforcement to complete a formidable tactical setup, Madrid's hierarchy will not overspend on a single player. Should internal solutions prove insufficient, the club is prepared to scour the international market for an elite alternative to sustain their upcoming domestic and European championship challenges.
