Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti insists they can challenge for the Champions League title this season.
Real have managed just one signing - David Alaba - so far this summer.
Ancelotti said, “It's not impossible to win the Champions League. Other teams have made big signings and it's a tough transfer market. But we have a strong squad with strength in depth. This squad can compete with any team in the world. If I as manager can get the players to be at 100% then I'm sure we can compete with every team. The window closes on 31 August and I can't confirm what the final squad will be just yet. We'll see what happens, but I'm impressed by the squad.
“We've had a good look at the players and we've had a good pre-season. The players have done well and have done a good combination of fitness and tactical work. We're welcoming back important players like Carvajal and Mendy. We've had a slight problem with Marcelo, who should recover soon. But the general fitness level is good at the moment."
