Why would Real Madrid be interested in signing an attacking midfielder when Carlo Ancelotti doesn't use those players? Apparently, this doesn't matter to El Chiringuito's François Gallardo.

Take this with a grain of salt, but it's true that Kevin De Bruyne could leave and join a bigger club if he keeps performing this well. According to Gallardo, Real Madrid could play close to €40 million for the Belgian wonder kid. De Bruyne is a fine player, that's for sure. But do Real Madrid need him with Isco and James on the roster? Wouldn't it better to add a midfielder and a goalkeeper to the roster?

It will be interesting to see where this goes, but François Gallardo will surely name some more players on Real's shortlist over the upcoming months.
