Emilio Butragueno appeared to play down Real Madrid's pursuit of Lucas Silva after Tuesday's victory over Ludogorets. "We have enough resources."
Los Blancos had been expected to accelerate their interest in the Cruzeiro midfielder in light of recent injuries to Luka Modric and James Rodriguez, but the head of PR preferred to focus on the club's record-breaking exploits against the Bulgarians.
"Many players have participated and the performance of the entire team have been very satisfactory," he stated after the match.
"We'll now wait to see who we get [in the last 16], but in the meantime we must focus on the League and the Club World Cup.
"We are keen to conquer. We have enough resources [in midfield].
"Navas took advantage of his opportunity, which is what any player has to do."
"We have to think about Friday and achieve victory No 20. I must congratulate the players and the coaching staff."
