Real Madrid assigned squad numbers to six new players as all of them joined pre-season training, including a €107 million signing from RB Leipzig.
- Real Madrid confirmed shirt numbers for six new signings on Monday, assigning Marc Cucurella the no. 17 jersey and Yan Diomande the no. 25 shirt.
- The 19-year-old Diomande joined last week from RB Leipzig for a club-record fee of £107million, signing a seven-year deal at the Santiago Bernabeu.
- Denzel Dumfries claimed the no. 20 kit, while Ibrahima Konate received the no. 16 shirt; both joined fellow new arrivals Bernardo Silva and Carlos Espi in pre-season training.
- Former coach Jimenez expressed confidence in Diomande, stating, "Even in Yan's first training session, you could see an individual talent." He believes the teenager will handle Madrid's intense pressure.
- Regarding positional flexibility, Jimenez noted, "I would say that 70% of his minutes in Germany were played on the right wing," indicating Diomande can adapt across the attack.
