#5 Pires and Figo speak

Arsenal legend Robert Pires showered praises on Arsenal target Marouane Fellaini amid reports linking the Belgian to the Emirates. The former Everton star’s contract expires at the end of the season, which is not a long time from now, and Pires believes that he can really help the Gunners in the following seasons.

'Everybody knows Marouane Fellaini in the Premier League,' he was quoted by Daily Mail.

'Of course last season it was very, very difficult, the relation with Jose Mourinho.

'But I think he's a good player, if he wants to join Arsenal I think it would be good news. He needs a new start and I think, with his quality, I think he can help Unai Emery and he can help the Arsenal players in the squad.'

Meanwhile, former Real Madrid and Barcelona star Luis Figo has urged his compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo to stay at the Bernabeu since the Galacticos have given him a lot – both individually and as a team – and that he wouldn’t be able to repeat such feats in any other club.

“Many times, what you want or what you are going to be doesn’t depend only on you but on other factors that so many don’t realize,” TeamTalk quoted him as saying.

“But Ronaldo is at the best club in the world and I think that he should finish his career here.

“Logically for him, it has been shown that what he has gained and did in Madrid wouldn’t happen everywhere.

“Madrid have also given him a lot in terms of prestige and that has also helped him to win individually.”

These comments come after the Portugal captain made it clear that he could move someplace else following discussions with his agent.

#4 Arnie and Oblak

Oblak has been a rock for Atleti

West Ham United’s Marko Arnautovic shockingly finds himself in the radar of Manchester United. The Austrian was in great form this season and has seemingly caught the eye of Jose Mourinho.

They are, however, not going to find it easy to land him as, according to Mirror, the Hammers have put a price tag of £60 million for the Austrian, which is more than twice of how much they bought him for last summer.

Meanwhile, in some good news for the Red Devils fans, Real Madrid have reportedly shifted their interest to Atletico Madrid’s Jan Oblak as Florentino Perez is finding it exceedingly difficult to land his first-choice target David De Gea, say Don Balon.

#3 Bale and De Gea

Future team-mates?

Both Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo are being to Manchester United, with some reports even claiming that the Red Devils are inclining more towards the Welshman.

But Diario Gol bring some bad news for them as they claim that should Manchester United fail to close a deal with the former Tottenham Hotspur man, the Blancos intend to use him as a card to bring Christian Eriksen to the Bernabeu.

In the last slider, I mentioned that Man United had a good news as Real Madrid want to sign Jan Oblak instead of De Gea. However, Diario Gol claim that the former Atleti goalkeeper wants to move back to Spain to be with his family and – as a result – Man United could sign Jan Oblak as his replacement.

#2 Sergio Ramos knows it all and Herrera’s commitment

It feels as though Sergio Ramos is the omnipotent and omniscient being that we refer to as God. The Spaniard has been named in a number of stories wherein he is claimed to be aware of things that not even the best of ITKs know.

And today, Don Balon claim that the Spain and Real Madrid captain is aware of the fact that Paul Pogba doesn’t want to negotiate with Real Madrid as he prefers a move to Barcelona because the Catalans suit his style of play even more.

Meanwhile, Ander Herrera, who has only a year left in his contract, plans to fulfill his deal and reject offers of a move outside the club – according to AS. His former club Athletic are interested in him.

#1 The deal with Cristiano Ronaldo

Back to old home?

Ever since Cristiano Ronaldo indirectly admitted that this could be his last season with Real Madrid, there hasn’t been a single day when he hasn’t featured in this slideshow.

And today is no different as Lionel Messi is aware of where Cristiano Ronaldo will play next season – at least that is what Don Balon informs us. Apparently, Manchester United’s main sponsors Chevrolet want a big name like him at the club, which is why the Red Devils want him and believe that £150 million would suffice to poach him.

However, Diario Gol state that Florentino Perez is willing to let him go but only if someone pays his release clause of €1 billion.

And that, my friends, is enough for the day for you folks.
