Zinedine Zidane not expecting busy January at Real Madrid

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane reveals that he 'does not want anyone to leave or come in' this month despite the transfer speculation surrounding the Bernabeu.

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has revealed that he 'does not want anyone to leave or come in' this month.

It had been claimed that players could both arrive and indeed depart Los Blancos in January as Zidane takes stock of his squad, but the Frenchman does not expect it to be a busy month of transfers at the Bernabeu.

"I don't want anyone to leave or to come in. I have a great squad. With players like James [Rodriguez] and Isco, you have to give them affection. That's what I'm going to do, but the most important thing is the group. It's always the group that wins," Zidane told reporters.

"The team is very focused, they want to do things well. We had intensity during training. The players have been great. I hope to have the same intensity for tomorrow's game."

Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale have both been linked with moves away in recent days, in addition to Rodriguez and Isco, who have struggled to make the starting XI in recent weeks.
