Real Madrid’s locker‑room video hints at numbers for new signings

Real Madrid supporters have been given a glimpse of the squad numbers for the club’s four summer signings after a newly released locker‑room video hinted at the likely jerseys, even as the official roster for the upcoming campaign remains unconfirmed. New head coach Jose Mourinho has already reshaped the squad, persuading the board to sign four newcomers: Marc Cucurella, Bernardo Silva, Ibrahima Konate and Denzel Dumfries. These acquisitions represent a significant overhaul after the club’s recent lack of silverware. Former player Alex Moreno posted a video walking through the dressing‑room shirts in reverse order. While the official roster remains unconfirmed, the method is intended to hint at the likely numbers each newcomer may receive. In the footage, Konate’s shirt is positioned between Jude Bellingham’s number five and Eder Militao’s number three, suggesting the Liverpool centre‑back could don the number four. The placement offers the most plausible indication of his squad digit.

Cucurella appears directly beside goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, who wears number one, implying the left‑back may be allocated the number two shirt. This visual cue aligns with the reverse‑order numbering scheme. Bernardo Silva is shown with a jersey that points to number nineteen, and Denzel Dumfries is linked to number twenty. The video also references Silva’s prospective number, reinforcing the nineteenth‑shirt prediction. Endrick, the Brazilian forward returning from Lyon, is displayed between Kylian Mbappé’s number ten and Federico Valverde’s number eight, indicating a possible number nine assignment. The positioning hints he could operate on the flanks or in a two‑striker system if Mourinho adopts such a formation. Meanwhile, Vinícius Júnior continues to face renewal complications, adding another layer to the club’s forward‑planning considerations. His contract situation remains unresolved as the squad rebuild progresses. The club still awaits official confirmation of the jersey numbers for the arrivals and a resolution to Vinícius Júnior’s contract, leaving supporters to watch for further updates.
