Hello and welcome to the Real Madrid transfer news and rumours of the day! Here are the top stories surrounding the Blancos!

#3 Eden Hazard on Real

Chelsea superstar Eden Hazard has once again spoken of his admiration for the Galacticos. The Belgian has been linked with a move to the Santiago Bernabeu and his words have only added fuel to the fire.

Hazard’s contract with the Blues is set to end in the summer of 2020, which means that he will have only a year left on his contract by the time this season ends. As a result, the Galacticos could force Chelsea to sell him for a relatively lower price instead of risk losing him in 2020 for free.

The Belgium captain, meanwhile, praised Maurizio Sarri and admitted that the way the Italian thinks about football matches his own philosophy.

"The new (Chelsea) coach (Maurizio Sarri) thinks football like me, so we'll see,” he said.

He, however, admitted that he doesn’t want to hang up his boots with a regret in his career and will, hence, make a decision somewhere down the line.

"The family is in London, I'm also going to be 28. I do not want to have any regrets at the end of my career.

"It's a decision I'm going to make, I do not know when, but I'll take it.”

Finally, the former Lille superstar expressed his admiration for Real Madrid. Hazard has, on numerous occasions, stated that he admires Zinedine Zidane but he had been in love with Real Madrid even before the Frenchman graced its turf as a player.

"You know me, I've always loved Real, even before (Zinedine) Zidane. We'll see what happens.

"As I said, I'm already finishing this year with Chelsea, I still have a year of contract after this year."

#2 Rivaldo wants Isco at Barcelona

Former Barcelona superstar has advised Real Madrid star Isco to switch to Barcelona in the future. The Spaniard has dropped down the pecking order and some of the fans actually booed him against CSKA Moscow.

Rivaldo, meanwhile, believes that Isco would be an excellent addition to the Barcelona squad but is aware of the intricacies involved in a player moving between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

"He is an excellent player and I think both the club and the player could do with it," Rivaldo said.

"Anyway, it is a complicated proposal, it is difficult to imagine two great rivals negotiating the transfer of a player."

The Brazilian legend then asked Isco to forget about the boos and focus on the future.

"He was on the radar of the fans. You have to look forward and forget about this whole situation."

#1 Vinicius and Bale

Former Real Madrid forward and current Real Valladolid owner Ronaldo has suggested that he wants Madrid youngster Vinicius at his club but that the chances of a move going through are bleak.

“I’ve already asked Florentino [for Vinicius Junior], but it’s very difficult,” Ronaldo was quoted as saying.

Meanwhile, Don Balon claim that Real Madrid are going to offer Gareth Bale, who is a target for Manchester United, to Tottenham Hotspur as a means to sign the player they have been desiring for a while.

With Cristiano Ronaldo’s departure, they need a goalscorer and Harry Kane is the perfect fit. However, he is valued at £223 million, which is why Madrid have offered Bale to bring the price down to £135 million.
