The main news in the Madrid press this morning is the revamped Spain squad which was named by Vicente del Bosque ahead of the start of Euro2016 qualifying in September.
La Roja was knocked out early at the World Cup and many of the aging players who had guided the nation through the golden generation to win the World Cup and two European Championships have seen the curtain fall on their international careers.
In terms of Real Madrid news, the major story is Cristiano Ronaldo and his chance to get a proper break from the game. Los Blancos take on Real Sociedad tomorrow night and the 29-year-old is likely to sit out the game.
Portugal team boss Paolo Bento has left the forward out of the squad too due to fitness concerns, allowing Ronaldo two-week break from playing altogether.
Marca once again links Real Madrid with a move for Alvaro Negredo, and these stories keep running on a daily basis now, meaning perhaps the club could pull of his signing before the transfer window closes. The paper claims a bid of 25 million euros would be enough to tempt Manchester City into parting with the striker and allowing him to arrive at the Santiago Bernabeu.
