Real Madrid head to the US on Monday where their preparations for the new season will intensify. A number of the players involved in the World Cup will also return to the group having been given an extended break.
But the main talking point this morning is the signing of James Rodriguez. Both Marca and AS go with the Colombian on their front pages and say the deal is almost done. According to Marca, Los Blancos have offered 75 million euros for the attacking midfielder, while Monaco are looking for 85 million. The paper says once the final figure is agreed, the transfer will be confirmed.
AS says preparations have already been made for Rodriguez’ arrival in Madird and that the 22-year-old already has a room for himself at Valdebebas. The only thing holding up the deal now is the departure of Angel di Maria. AS claims di Maria will leave the Santiago Bernabeu and Rodriguez will then be unveiled as a Los Blancos player.
Elsewhere, Alvaro Morata is in Turin now and could be presented as a Juventus player later on today. The final fee is thought to be around 18 million and Real have a buy-back clause they can activate after the first year.
james is good but selling di maria is in imposible decision
its good to have jemes here but please keep angel!!!
hes a very good player
James is good bt Dnt sell di maria, he single handedly won us the decima d man with d big heart,U can sell casemiro nd illarra.
James is real talented player,but di maria is the best and greatest of all time please madrid should try there possible best to keep him at bernabeu
James is a perpect choices 4 real.But real should nt risk selling di’maria becouse without cr7,no one can disturb defenders like angel. So madrid should understand the merit of angel nd switch-off any offer about him.
Wellcome toni kroos!!!
Hala! madrid.!
James will be highly welcomed, but selling di maria will be madrid’s gretest mistake ever!
We will welcome to james but angle is the most danger in our club. Pls don’t sell him. Hala Madrid!
I don’t understand why Real Madrid is talking about transferring A. Di Maria. Even with the acquisition of James, D M remains a genuine and master piece of the team. So to the jefe, Sr. Florentino, I understand this is business, but please keep DM.
no no no james we love him a good signing but selling di maria bad move
Are you people crazy selling the playmaker how long will it take James to be Di Maria think about it we have a (trophy) to defend and a treble to take.go for Messi instead and Benzema to Arsenal,replace Morata with Origi from Belgium he gona be hot property
Madrid don’t Repudiate with Angel Dimaria because his too danger veritable foward player, please keep him a side dont be a fumble mistake, ur are highly welcome james to u.
