Dusan Vlahovic linked with surprise Real Madrid loan move for 22/23

Real Madrid have been linked with a loan move for Juventus forward Dusan Vlahovic, with the player extensively rumoured to leave Turin this summer. Several top clubs are interested in signing him including Manchester United and Chelsea.

However, the Premier League clubs want a permanent move for him while Madrid are only interested in signing him on a loan deal. Even a temporary move would cost them around €15-20 million, which has complicated matters owing to their conservative strategy in the transfer market.

Chelsea have reportedly made a €60 million offer to sign the Serbian forward, but have been asked to raise their offer by Juventus. Manchester United have also made contact, but a formal bid has not been placed yet by them.

The former Fiorentina man has had a difficult time in Turin in comparison to his spell in violet. He was in free scoring form prior to his move to the Bianconeri, and has now found himself unable to replicate his previous form. This is a result of the tactics employed by Max Allegri as well, which has further fuelled rumours of Dusan Vlahovic leaving the club.

This past season, he scored 10 goals and provided two assists in 27 Serie A games, missing out on the Golden Boot by a huge margin.

Real Madrid, on the other hand, need to replace Karim Benzema after his move to Al Ittihad. Although they have signed Joselu on a loan move, they need a more prolific forward to lead the line. Kylian Mbappe is very unlikely to sign for them this summer given that he still has one year of contract with PSG. And a move is much more realistic next summer when he will be a free agent.

With Harry Kane also unlikely to be signed given his price tag, Madrid have turned to Dusan Vlahovic as a temporary solution. But, a deal will be quite challenging to navigate especially considering the other clubs interested in signing him this summer.

Top 5 players with the most goals for Real Madrid

5. Santillana – 253 goals in 578 games

The iconic striker spent 17 seasons with Real Madrid between 1971 and 1988. He retired as one of the icons of the club in that era, and won nine La Liga titles, two UEFA Cups and four Copa del Rey trophies during his time with Los Blancos.

4. Alfredo di Stefano – 269 goals in 354 games

Alfredo di Stefano – 4th most goals for Real Madrid

Madrid have named their training ground after the iconic Argentina-born forward. Di Stefano bettered the tally of Santillana in over 200 less games. He was the prolific centre forward for the club during the 1950s, much before Santillana’s era had begun. For a very long time, Alfredo di Stefano was the player with the most goals for Real Madrid.

3. Raul – 343 goals in 741 games

Raul – 3rd most goals for Real Madrid

Surpassing Alfredo di Stefano’s record is the legendary Raul. The Spaniard came through the Castilla academy in the 90s and went on to play for Los Blancos until 2010. In his 16 seasons at the club, he established himself as a legend with 343 goals for the club, winning three Champions League titles.

2. Karim Benzema – 354 goals in 648 games

Via Vinicius Jr’s Twitter

Bettering Raul by 11 goals, Karim Benzema is the second-highest goalscorer in the history of Real Madrid. However, he is number one in terms of the most assists for Real Madrid. The Frenchman was signed in 2009, and in 14 seasons, has written his name in the history of the club as one of their best strikers of all-time.

1. Cristiano Ronaldo – 450 goals in 438 games

Cristiano Ronaldo

Having more goals than matches played, Cristiano Ronaldo is the player with the most goals for Real Madrid. The Portuguese forward joined in the same transfer window that Benzema did, and left for Juventus in 2018. In nine seasons, he shattered the scoring record at the club and is arguably the greatest player in the history of the club.

Toni Kroos: A star, a footballer who glorifies the sport

Toni Kroos, the 33-year-old footballer, is soon to turn 34 at Real Madrid, the club he’s been with for nine years. The next season makes his tenth one in the club that he joined in 2014. He was just 24 when he came to Madrid at one of the most profitable deals in European football.

The former Bayern Munich player is unique in ways more than one. Kroos is seen wearing the same Addidas-manufactured shoes every that are designed especially for him and are unavailable in the market.

Toni Kroos: an extraordinary decade with Real Madrid

Kross has always maintained a high awareness of the privileges in his sport, including the tolls. Even he has always made it clear that his future will always be with Real Madrid, be it better financial deals from the United States or Saudi Arabian clubs. Two years ago, he made a major decision as he walked out of his national team Germany to focus solely on Madrid.

Kross has been a part of one of the most iconic midfielders in the history of the sport as he, Luka Modric, and Casemero built a staggering trio between 2014 and 2018. Even without the latter, Kroos and Modric helped their team to the stupendous conquest of La Decimocuarta – the fourteenth.

Glorious time with his national team too

Overall, he has bagged 20 trophies with Real Madrid and 10 with his former club Bayern Munich. Not to forget his contribution in 2014 Germany’s World Cup win, where he had his part in both the match and the goals.

A player who is unique has sparked up the field with his lightning moves. A glorious decade that’s worth cherishing for millions of fans over the globe.

Joselu officially signs for Real Madrid on loan for 23/24

Real Madrid have completed the signing of Joselu on a loan deal from Espanyol. The forward will be the replacement for Karim Benzema, who left to sign for Al Ittihad on a €200 million deal. The Spain international will spend the 2023/24 season on loan with Los Blancos, and is expected to be a short-term solution to the club’s striker problems.

This leaves Joselu as the only natural striker in the line-up, with makeshift roles for Rodrygo and Fede Valverde other possible options for them. The striker returns to Real Madrid, having once been part of their youth system. He scored two goals in two appearances across two seasons during his last spell, and will now be the first-choice striker for the coming season.

Espanyol will receive a transfer fee worth €500,000 for the move. They have also included the option to sign the player permanently worth €1.5 million, which is not mandatory. Joselu has reduced his salary to make the move, and personal terms were never a problem to get the deal over the line.

This past season, the 33-year-old finished as one of the top scorers in La Liga. He found the back of the net 16 times and provided two assists in 34 league games. However, Espanyol ended up getting relegated in spite of his contributions.

The player had a clause in his contract that allowed him to depart temporarily in case Espanyol were relegated. And now, he has returned to Madrid to help them replace Karim Benzema for the coming season.

Brahim Diaz Real Madrid return confirmed: New deal until 2027 signed

Brahim Diaz has now extended his contract with Real Madrid until 2027, after returning to the Santiago Bernabeu. The player has been developing for the last three seasons with Milan, but has always had his mind set on a future at the Spanish capital.

Madrid are happy with the progress that he has made in Italy, and now consider him ready for the first team picture. They will also boost his salary which would make him one of the middle earners in the squad.

With Marco Asensio leaving as a free agent, Diaz will be able to directly replace his compatriot in the first team. The former Manchester City player has shown great versatility during his time in Italy and will be able to operate as a versatile figure under Carlo Ancelotti next season.

Madrid have confirmed the return of the player on their social media profiles, and he will be presented as a new signing in the coming weeks alongside Fran Garcia and Jude Bellingham.

While Los Blancos have confirmed the return of Garcia from Rayo Vallecano, they are yet to formally announce the arrival of Bellingham. Dortmund have confirmed a club record sale figure for the English midfielder, but a formal confirmation is pending from the Spanish giants as things stand.

Together, the three players will form an important part of the next era at the club, which will see the likes of Toni Kroos and Luka Modric slowly phased out of the first team picture.

There were rumours that he could continue with the number 22, as he has done with Borussia Dortmund, and Birmingham City. His boyhood club even retired the number 22 jersey in his honour, as he was their most expensive sale of all-time. However at Real Madrid, the number 22 jersey is worn by Antonio Rudiger.

Bellingham will be wearing the number 5 shirt for Los Blancos, which was iconically worn by Zinedine Zidane. The youngster has been very open about Zidane being his idol, and will now wear his number at the club.

The number 5 shirt belonged to Jesus Vallejo, who has now moved to the number 24 kit. He also revealed that Zidane was one of the main inspirations behind choosing Real Madrid, amidst strong interest over a return to England.

Jude Bellingham presentation: New signing speaks for the first time

“I was at the final when Madrid beat Liverpool, that was a huge factor in my decision to join Real. I’m joining the greatest club in the world and it’s not about money,” Jude Bellingham said at his presentation.

“My dad told me about Real Madrid’s interest last year, 12/15 months ago… and trust me, I got goosebumps and my heart stopped a bit. Money was never a factor in my career, this is the best club in the world.”

“I was sold when Real Madrid came to my house to meet us. It was huge because they were great with my family, they didn’t try to manipulate them. It was a great moment, goosebumps… you dream of those moments as a kid!”

“Of course all my friends from the England national team wanted me to be back in the Premier League, it was the easier option for me in my comfort zone. But you just can’t turn down the big, great Real Madrid,” he added.

The Jude Bellingham presentation saw him wear the famous white jersey for the first time. He did the mandatory keep ups in front of the crowd at the Santiago Bernabeu, and was hailed as the best young player in the world by club president Florentino Perez.

Manchester City and Liverpool were both interested in trying to sign the player. But, the appeal of playing for Real Madrid has outweighed both their offers. He will be the future of their midfield, alongside the likes of Eduardo Camavinga, Fede Valverde and Aurelien Tchouameni and will be expected to carry on the legacy set by Toni Kroos and Luka Modric.

Jude Bellingham transfer news: What next for Real Madrid in the transfer market?

Real Madrid are now exploring the opportunity for a transfer to bring Kylian Mbappe to the club. The Frenchman is likely to be sold this summer after he told PSG that he will not be extending his contract until 2025. However, a deal will not be easy considering the difficult relationship between the two clubs.

Borussia Dortmund are in the market to sign Edson Alvarez from Ajax in order to replace Jude Bellingham. Negotiations are expected to continue this week between the two parties to work out a deal, following the conclusion of Bellingham’s transfer to Real Madrid.

Marco Asensio to PSG: Free transfer imminent for Spanish winger

Marco Asensio to PSG is now in the works.

June 4, 2023 update: The move has been given the here we go signal by Fabrizio Romano, and the player has agreed a contract until June 2027 verbally.

Aston Villa recently made an offer to sign the out-of-contract Real Madrid winger. But, Marco Asensio to PSG looks more likely right now after the French club made an improved offer to land him as a free agent.

The forward has decided to leave Madrid, as confirmed officially, in search of a more important role on the pitch. And it seems like he could have that in the French capital once the transfer window opens.

Madrid were keen on offering him a new deal. They were open to giving him a wage hike, and were also comfortable with letting him choose the length of the contract. But, they could not offer assurances about playing time. And that proved to be the deal breaker which will see the winger leave the club, on the back of a remarkable season where he has impressed as an impact sub in many games.

Marco Asensio to PSG

Marco Asensio to PSG: Transfer more likely with new offer

A new challenge in the Premier League was almost in the works, after Villa’s proposal. But, PSG’s improved contract offer has shifted the transfer in their favour, with Asensio more likely to sign for the Ligue 1 champions as things stand.

The agreement between the two parties is close, but not fully completed yet. But PSG are confident of at least reaching a verbal agreement in the coming days.

Marco Asensio will play his final game with Real Madrid this weekend, and will then say goodbye to the fans. His departure is set to be confirmed shortly after that, with PSG waiting.

Why do PSG need Marco Asensio?

With Lionel Messi expected to leave PSG this summer, they will be without a first-choice right winger. And the Spain international could fulfil that role in the squad. However, he is quite versatile and can play anywhere across the front three if asked to.

The forward has scored 12 goals and provided six assists across 42 appearances in all competitions. And a number of them have been from the bench, with Rodrygo or Federico Valverde starting more on the right flank than him.

The French giants are planning an overhaul this summer, and Asensio could be the first of a decent list of players to move to the capital city.

What next for Real Madrid?

After Marco Asensio to PSG, and a potential departure for Dani Ceballos as well, Real Madrid will need reinforcements. Brahim Diaz is expected to stay at the Santiago Bernabeu after his three-year loan spell with Milan, that has seen him develop into an influential forward player.

It seems unlikely that he could displace Rodrygo as the first-choice option on the right. But, he will be able to provide a significant impact when brought in as a substitute or rotated. Diaz can also play through the middle in a number 10 role, making him more versatile and presenting Carlo Ancelotti a wide array of options for his team.

However, a new player could also be brought in to cover for the outgoing Asensio.

Marco Asensio PSG transfer confirmed: Agreement for contract until June 2027

Marco Asensio PSG transfer: The move has been given the here we go signal by renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano, which means that it is only a matter of time before it is made official. The player has finally reached an agreement on personal terms until June 2027, and will formally sign the contract in the coming days.

He will say goodbye to the Real Madrid fans for the final time in their last game of the season. And thereafter, he will be able to join the French club as a free agent when his contract expires. The deal is expected to be completed next week and an announcement will be made soon after.

Marco Asensio PSG update: Here we go confirmed

The Spaniard has been an impact sub for several parts of the season, but has failed to start regularly under Carlo Ancelotti. The Italian has opted to use Federico Valverde and Rodrygo on the right wing ahead of Asensio. And as a result, his playing time has been restricted.

However, he has made an impact whenever called upon, scoring 12 goals and providing six assists in 42 appearances across all competitions. And at PSG, he will be expected to replace Messi on the right. The Argentine will also be on the move, leaving the Parisians as a free agent at the end of his contract.

While Asensio might not have a similar profile to Messi, he will be able to have his own unique impact under the new project in place at the club. Luis Campos has identified Asensio as the right man to join, and it remains to be seen how he adapts.

Aston Villa were also interested in trying to sign the Real Madrid forward on a free transfer. But PSG’s proposal was far better than that offered by Villa, even though they have qualified for the Europa Conference League next season. As a result, a verbal agreement is now in place for the forward’s move to Ligue 1. It now remains to be seen how he is played in the new league.

Marco Asensio PSG transfer is on

Will Real Madrid replace Marco Asensio after his PSG move?

Los Blancos will have Brahim Diaz returning after three years on loan at Milan. And it is likely that he will be the direct replacement for Marco Asensio at the club. However, the board is also trying to sign Kai Havertz from Chelsea regardless of the situation with Karim Benzema. As a result, the German could also be used as a unique member in the attacking line. However, it is likely that Carlo Ancelotti will continue using either of Valverde or Rodrygo on the right hand side of the attacking trident.

Real Madrid will also say goodbye to Eden Hazard and Mariano Diaz at the end of the season. The club has confirmed that Hazard’s contract will be terminated a year early after his injury laden spell with them. On the other hand, Diaz has remained fairly anonymous during his recent spell at Madrid. And he will also leave the club as a free agent.

Isco to sign for Rayo Vallecano as a free agent after 6 months away from football

Several former Real Madrid free agents are finding new clubs this transfer window. Isco is one of them, having been without a club since leaving Sevilla during the winter. He had a fallout with the board and the coach with the Basque club and is now expected to sign for Rayo Vallecano in the coming weeks.

Negotiations between the two parties are quite advanced and should be completed very soon. Reports from Spain, in particular, from Mundo Deportivo, suggest that the player has chosen Vallecano as his next destination and the move is only a matter of time.

During the January transfer window, there were strong possibilities of a move to Union Berlin for the midfielder. But due to financial issues and several other minor reasons, the transfer fell through and he has been away from football for the second half of the 2022/23 season.

Isco to sign for Rayo Vallecano as a free agent in the coming weeks

After carefully considering his options, the midfielder has chosen Rayo Vallecano as the best possible option to take his career forward. There were links with a move abroad to Porto as well – but the club’s head coach, Sergio Conceiçao, was not convinced of Isco’s abilities. As a result, a transfer to Portugal did not materialise for him.

The 31-year-old is now set to stay in Madrid for the next chapter of his career, which should be finalised soon. Alongside him, Real Madrid players like Mariano Diaz, Marco Asensio, Karim Benzema and Eden Hazard are all leaving the club and are moving elsewhere for the next phases of their career.
