The window summary

The summary for Real Madrid summer transfer window, so you can rate it in the poll below:

Signings:

  • Rüdiger: €0M
  • Tchouaméni: €80M + €20M

Departures:

  • Casemiro (Man Utd): €70M + €15M
  • Marcelo: €0M (contract not extended)
  • Bale: €0M (contract not extended
  • Isco: €0M (contract not extended)
  • Jović (Fiorentina): €0 + 50% sell on
  • Gila (Lazio): €6M
  • Chust (Cadiz): €1M
  • Kubo (Real Sociedad): €6M
  • Mayoral (Getafe): €10M
  • Miguel Gutierrez (Girona)- €4M
  • Reinier (Girona): Loan
  • Blanco (Cadiz): Loan

The balance was +€17M, which was good thing, but But Real failed to sell Mariano (even for free) and, arguably, Asensio.
