Real Madrid’s plan for signing Haaland, renewing Ramos’ contract
Real Madrid have a clear strategy to strengthen their squad for next season, starting with signing Borussia Dortmund’s Erling Haaland as their first-choice striker and renewing club captain Sergio Ramos’ contract for two additional years. Erling Haaland In addition to interest from the Premier League, Real Madrid are also looking towards Haaland to solve their goalscoring problems. Luka Jovic’s relative failure to perform at the Santiago Bernabeu meant that the young striker is now on loan at Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt, where he started well, scoring thrice in five games. And Jovic could be the answer in Madrid’s pursuit of Haaland – instead of paying 100m Euros or more, Madrid are considering offering Jovic + cash to Dortmund to sign the player. We have previously discussed Dortm...
Arsenal receive boost in signing on-loan Real Madrid star, available for £22m
Arsenal have received a potential boost in signing Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos on a permanent basis this summer. The Spain international is currently in his second season on loan with the Gunners and has already made 61 appearances for them in all competitions. It is unclear whether the Gunners will look to sign him permanently in the summer, but La Razon claims that Los Blancos are willing to sanction his sale. The midfielder is not in the plans of Los Blancos manager Zinedine Zidane and it is reported that he could be sold for around £22 million (€25m). Ceballos’ former side Real Betis are also interested, but they may only approach to sign him if Nabil Fekir heads through the exit door. SL view: Ceballos had an impressive debut season with the Gunners where he caught the e...
Forget Madrid – That ship has sailed for Tottenham star – opinion
“You’ve got Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo coming to the end of their careers. (Robert) Lewandowski is four years older than Harry – he’s got the chance to be the best player in the world.” That little nugget from Tony Cascarino on talkSPORT sparked plenty of debate across the Sportslens team. Kane has been hugely prolific during his time at Spurs, but his goals have failed to translate into any silverware for the club. Cascarino, who played for numerous clubs during his career, believes that Kane should consider moving to La Liga this summer. “He’s 28 in July and Beckham went to Real Madrid at 28 – I think he’s going to look at his team,” he said. “What has he won? The answer is nothing. He’s won lots of accolades for his individual achievements, but he was a loser in the League Cup f...
Arsenal clearout, last-ditch Liverpool – the best of January transfers across Europe
It’s been a rather quiet January transfer window.

Mesut Ozil (Arsenal to Fenerbahce, free transfer) Ozil in his first training session at Fenerbahce Once one of the world’s best playmakers, Mesut Ozil’s time at the Emirates had gone sour, having been left out of Mikel Arteta’s 25-man squad back in October.

Arsenal agree deal with Real Madrid for Martin Ødegaard
Real Madrid playmaker Martin Ødegaard will join Arsenal on loan for the rest of the season after the clubs agreed to terms this evening. That is according to The Athletic, who report that a temporary move has now been given the green light by both parties.

Report: Benzema argues with Zidane in Real Madrid dressing room
Real Madrid’s disappointing defeat against Athletic Bilbao in the Spanish Super Cup has raised plenty of questions over Zinedine Zidane’s decision-making. Diaro GOL reports that Karim Benzema was not happy with Zidane’s substitutions. The Frenchman was taken off in the 87th minute with Madrid searching for an equaliser. SPORTSLENS VIEW – Did Zinedine Zidane make the correct decision to substitute Benzema? Benzema did not start the game on a bright note. The 33-year-old French striker was livelier in the second half after scoring Madrid’s goal. He became more involved thereafter and was unfortunate not to level the game when he had an equaliser chalked off by VAR for offside. However, Zidane’s decision to replace Benzema with Mariano Diaz in the 87th minute was baffling with Madrid nee...
Real Madrid forward stabs Zidane in the back and wants him sacked
One of the players who admired Zinedine Zidane now wants him to be sacked on the back of some terrible decision-making. Real Madrid crashed out of the Spanish Super Cup earlier this week thanks to a 2-1 defeat against Athletic Bilbao. Los Blancos looked short of ideas in the final third and Eden Hazard was one of the side’s worst performers, raising questions over his continued involvement in the team. One of the players who feels hard done at the moment is fellow winger Vinicius Junior, as per Diario GOL. The Brazilian international has been one of Madrid’s better players this season, but his minutes have been limited lately. Zidane and Vinicius have reportedly fallen out of favour due to the latter texting during a team talk. The young forward now aims to take drastic action against the ...
Report: Haaland makes three key demands to sign for Real Madrid
Erling Braut Haaland is on the radar of Real Madrid and Barcelona, with both clubs eager to secure his services. The Norwegian marksman has established himself as one of the world’s most in-demand players after producing some sparkling performances for Borussia Dortmund, scoring 35 goals in 34 games (stats from TransfrMarkt). His release clause is 75 million Euros, although that is not due to come into effect until the summer of 2022, which means any side trying to sign him this summer would need to pay more. Haaland is thought to be in favour of joining Los Blancos and has made three clear demands which will prove decisive in the transfer negotiations. Diario GOL claims that the main request is from his agent, Mino Raiola, who has asked for a commission of 20 million Euros for his client’...
Luka Jović’s torrid time in Madrid
Luka Jović was hot property after the 2018/19 season when he had scored 27 times in 46 games for Eintracht Frankfurt, including 10 in 14 Europa League outings as his side reached the semi-finals. With many top clubs including the likes of Liverpool and Barcelona showing an interest in the striker at some point, it was almost certain that he was going to leave Germany in the summer of 2019. He did just that by signing for Real Madrid for a reported €60 million on a six-year-contract, with the plan being that he would compete with Karim Benzema for a starting spot. That plan clearly did not work. Fast forward a-year-and-a-half, and now Jović has returned to Frankfurt on a loan till the end of the season after absolutely flopping in Spain. A number of things went wrong for him, and ...
