Real Madrid may offer Alvaro Morata plus €50 million for Eden Hazard, as we all know how big fan of Spanish striker is Antonio Conte.
The 25-year-old Belgian has been linked several times with Real Madrid, and he also said that he would like to play for the Champions League winners. Real Madrid's manager Zinedin Zidane is a known fan of Hazard's and beside terrible season in Chelsea, the Belgian midfielder plays really great at the Euros and he could be a great singing. Manchester United and Arsenal are also interested in Morata and soon we will find out where this young player will end up. According to AS, Real Madrid have made a €65 million bid for the Austrian midfielder David Alaba.
Alaba is a priority this summer so Real Madrid increased their initial bid of €50 million, but Bayern Munich is unlikely to accept this offer. Bayern Munich have valued the Austrian midfielder at a price of €80 million to scare potentional buyers ( Barcelona, Man City, Man Utd), but we will see how much is Real Madrid willing to pay for Alaba. Alaba would definetly be a great signing for the Champions League winners, and they have a lot of time to bring him on Santiago Bernabeu. Alvaro Morata will likely return to Real Madrid so he can fight with Benzema for the place in the lineup. However in case of his return, Jesé's minutes will probably be reduced even though he played only 1,256 minutes from a possible 4,860, or 27%).
First, Real Madrid wanted to send Morata on a loan again, but they have changed their plans. But then someone will have to go, and that is probably Jesé. Real Madrid wants to renew Jesé's contract which expires in Juni 2017, because if he leaves they would like him to go with buy-back clause, as was the case with Dani Caravajal when he left for Leverkusen in 2012. Jesé was close to leaving the Spanish capital at the end of season 2014-2015. Benitez assured him of his importance. Now there is a different situation, but Jesé is really close to leaving Champions League winners. Whenever Real Madrid had difficulties, there would be a story about a missing link. All experts agree that Real Madrid needs a hardworker in midfield, a player like Claude Makélélé.
Since the Frenchman left Real Madrid in 2003, they bought a dozens of players in that position a have spent more than 215 000 000 €. But none of those were like Makélélé. Xabi Alonso and Emerson were closest to him but they also did some other things. But finally, Zidane gave the opportunity to Casemiro and that turned out to be a great decision. Before Casemiro, there were Illarramendi (38.9 million euros), Lukas Silva (15 million euros), Mateo Kovačić (35 million euros), Nuri Sahin (15 million euros), Sami Khedira (10 million euros), Xabi Alonso (30 million euros), Ruben De la Red (4,5 million euros), Lassana Diarra (20 million euros), Mahamadou Diarra (26 million euros), Emerson (16 million euros), Fernando Gago (20 million euros), Javi Garcia (4.5 million euros), Pablo Garcia (5,5 million euros), Thomas Gravesen (3.5 million euros).. This summer, Real Madrid have finally opportunity to buy new Makélélé, his only inheritor N´Golo Kanté. He had an amazing season i Leicester, and he is drawing praise from all quarters for his preformances for France at he Euros. Real Madrid is interested in bringing him on Bernabéu because Casemiro is the only defensive midfielder in the squad. Money is not a problem, becuase Kanté has a minimum release clause of 25.5 million euros. Beside Kanté, Real Madrid could also go for Paul Pogba, and these two have proven during the Euros that they are compatible on the pitch. |
