Real Madrid faces squad registration crunch after Silva arrival

Real Madrid's 25‑man first‑team roster is now full after the arrivals of Bernardo Silva, Denzel Dumfries, Ibrahima Konate and the promotion of Endrick. The club has no remaining slots for additional signings. Journalist Jorge Picon notes that Franco Mastantuono remains registered with the reserve side, keeping the overall squad count at the limit. Despite the packed roster, Real Madrid still seeks another central defender and possibly a left‑back before the transfer window closes. The departures of David Alaba and Dani Carvajal opened space, but the new arrivals filled those vacancies. Players now listed as possible exits include Dani Ceballos, Eduardo Camavinga, Raul Asencio and Fran Garcia. Ceballos is reportedly evaluating options such as Ajax or a return to Real Betis. Real Madrid must offload players to free registration places, as an overloaded squad could hinder performance throughout the season. Further strengthening will depend on successful sales.
