Marca, the most sold Spanish newspaper, claims today that “Real Madrid have reached a deal with Asier Illarramendi” to move to Santiago Bernabeu.
“Los Blancos are negotiating with Real Sociedad a cut on the 30-million Euros buy-out clause after two previous offers rejected”, the Madrid daily states. As also reports “Illarramendi is close to signing for Madrid”.
According to Marca, Gonzalo Higuain move to Arsenal could be farther from being close because Real finds the 27-million offer “unacceptable”.
The main Spanish sports paper also brings to its front page the situation of goalkeeper Antonio Adan, whose contract has been cut in other for him to sign for another club for free.
Meanwhile, As puts its focus on Real Madrid youngster Jese Rodriguez contract renewal. “He still has not renewed. He wants to stay, but as a member of the first squad”, they report.
