Real Madrid GM Jorge Valdano insists there are no egos in current star-studded squad.

"These Galacticos are very professional and have their feet on the ground," said Valdano.

"This squad is very serious and professional, and that will help us throughout the season."

Valdano also paid tribute to their three veterans: "Iker Casillas is the best goalkeeper in the world, Guti, Raul, for their creativity, are the essence of Real Madrid."
