Real Madrid did not make any changes to their squad. Because they are not interested in wasting money. They kept the squad unchanged from the previous season as well. And consistently performing well. If Rodrygo, Vinicius and Benzema are in form, Real Madrid will be favorites for the title again this season. As Vinicius became more experienced, his performance gradually improved. And so despite not making any changes to the squad, Real Madrid is still a strong team this season.
It's not a fact because we know Madrid always surprises in the transfer market but not for this season there are 2 reasons
not having enough money or not competing to get targeted players like Mbappe , overall Madrid squad is still strong but they have a weakness in defense While Barcelona is a ticking time bomb that can be great at times when players have found the right style of play.
