#5 Real Madrid and Barcelona
- Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo is doing his best to convince Argentine Angel Di Maria to stay at the club, despite heightened interest from Manchester United. The left footed winger has been linked with a £55 million switch to the Red Devils.
- Sami Khedira is not for sale, says Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti. He has thus diffused all the rumours linking him with English clubs Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea.
- Barcelona midfielder Alex Song is attracting interest from both the Milan clubs, report Football-Espana. The Cameroon international has been a bit-part player in Spain the last two seasons.
- The Catalans have received a boost in their bid to sign Colombia’s winger Juan Cuadrado, as he is reportedly believed to favour a switch to Spain over both Chelsea and Manchester United.
