Juande Ramos might have come in, but it doesn't look as though Real Madrid are going to be altering their winter spending plan.
Los Blancos have already signed Klaas-Jan Huntelaar and Lassana Diarra, and they are now looking to add a midfielder to their squad.
One of those who they have cast their eyes on is CSKA Moscow midfielder, Milos Krasic, who has been one of the stand-out players in the Russian league this season.
With the transfer window approaching rumours have naturally began that Madrid will be moving for him, and today, the player spoke to the Russian press about the interest from Spain.
"Playing at Real Madrid is a dream for all footballers, but at the moment, as far as I know, there has been nothing concrete," he declared.
"There has been contact though, and if there is any more, I am sure that my agent will contact me to let me know."
Krasic is 24-years-old and has played for CSKA since 2004, when he joined from FK Vojvodina.
His improving play with the Moscow side earned him a national team call-up, and he has since come to be regarded as a first-team player.
