Real Madrid president Florentino Perez says the club are eyeing two or three major signings for new coach Jose Mourinho.
Former coach Manuel Pellegrini was sacked after the Spanish giants failed to secure any silverware last season, allowing former Inter Milan boss Mourinho to step in as his successor last month.
And Perez has revealed Real are looking to bring in a handful of new players to bolster the squad next term.
Signings"What we are definitely going to do is bring in two or three top players to complete the squad," Perez told television station Antena 3 .
Real have been linked to several players, including Inter right-back Maicon, Sevilla winger Jesus Navas and Benfica midfielder Angel Di Maria.
When questioned about Maicon, who helped Mourinho's Inter to UEFA Champions League glory last month, Perez said: "There is no rush but Maicon is one of the top players in his position."
On Navas and Di Maria he added: "They are two players who I also like very much but I think it's still too early and we will work over the summer to bring in those players who will complete the magnificent squad we already have."
Perez also revealed the club are tracking Bordeaux midfielder Yoann Gourcuff.
"Some have even said he is the new (Zinedine) Zidane," said Perez.
"He (Gourcuff) is a player we have followed in the same way as others who we think will be the top players of tomorrow."
Competition
Perez insists a player not on his radar is Barcelona's Lionel Messi, claiming it would be a mistake to put him alongside Real's record-signing Cristiano Ronaldo.
"Messi is the second-best player in the world after Ronaldo and it would not be a good thing to have both in the same team," he said.
"That way there is more competition."
