Regarding transfers, Míchel admitted that “there is the option of making another signing” if a market opportunity arises, although he stressed the need to consider the budget and the club's financial situation. He praised the three additions already made and mentioned that the sports management is working with an eye on the future, with good reports on players like Izan. He also confirmed that goalkeeper Livakovic has found an exit, noting that his presence had not caused any problems.
The Madrid-born coach praised Lemar, assuring that he is in his best physical shape and that the team must take care of him to maintain his level. Tactically, he identified the lack of accuracy as an area for improvement, especially aggressiveness in the final third. He asked the second-line players, such as Iván Martín, Fran Beltrán, Witsel, or the wingers, to be more decisive and attack the finishing points.
