Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane has denied reports of a winter market clearout.

After victory over Malaga, Zidane insisted he would be keeping his squad together.

"In the winter market there will be no exits," he said. "But anything can happen in terms of arrivals, we will see."

The Estadio Santiago Bernabeu has't been the happiest of places for Real this season, but the win was vital according to the coach.

"We started the game well and scored the first goal quickly, which is important," he continued.

"But everything changed and the second half was very difficult.

"We're happy with the result even though there were other things that were not as we wanted.

"We like to play here [at the Santiago Bernabeu]."
