New Real Madrid manager Rafael Benitez reportedly wants to make four more signings this summer and has both Arsenal and Manchester United targets on his wish-list.
The former Liverpool manager was confirmed as Carlo Ancelotti’s successor at the Bernabeu last week and has already secured the services of Porto duo Danilo and Casemiro for next season.
But Spanish newspaper AS claims that Real’s summer spending will not stop until Benitez has got his hands on a new goalkeeper, box-to-box midfielder, right winger and striker.

Manchester United stopper David de Gea is known to be on his way to Madrid, and either AS Monaco’s Geoffrey Kondogbia or Juventus star Arturo Vidal could join him as Los Blancos have dropped their interest in PSG’s Marco Verratti.
Kondogbia has been linked with a move to the Premier League with either Liverpool or Arsenal, who are one of many clubs, including United, who are apparently keen on Chile talisman Vidal.
Once Benitez has landed his choice of central midfielders, he will turn his attention to attacking additions.
