Real Madrid manager Santiago Solari has reiterated that the club’s transfer policy is out of his jurisdiction. The Galacticos have been struggling with injuries and even without considering them, they still had a huge Cristiano Ronaldo-sized void left to fill.

As a result, the Merengues have been linked with a few players but Solari maintained that it is not possible for him to make comments on the club’s transfer strategy while also adding that Real Madrid don’t have a proper number 9 apart from Karim Benzema.

"I always say it is not my position to explain the policy of signings. The squad we have is marvellous, with a lot of young players, a lot of experienced players and they are all 100 per cent committed,” he said.

"They are all different players, not necessarily specialist 'number nines'. The specialist we have is Karim Benzema and he is injured."
