Iker Casillas: "One thing saddens me – you no longer see kids playing football in the streets; they spend hours on their phones instead. We need to bring back that spirit."

Iker Casillas: "I think Jude Bellingham is a phenomenon. At just 20 years old, he has become a reference in football."

Iker Casillas: "Our clubs in Spain have won 34 European titles since 2000, surpassing Italy and Germany. The development of young players is crucial in our country. I was a academy of Real Madrid, and I know how well they nurture young athletes; they have excellent training facilities."

Real Madrid are interested in Victor Osimhen. The club do not like signing players in January but we have to wait to see what happens in the winter market.

⚪️🇹🇷 Modrić sends message to Real Madrid fans about Arda Güler…

Luka Modrić: “Trust me, he’s great boy with top talent”.

“It’s a shame that due to an injury he hasn't had the chance to show it to the Madrid fans yet”.

“He has a bright career ahead of him and I believe he will bring a lot of happiness to our fans”.

“If he's the next Modrić? Arda should be allowed to be Arda Güler and should not be burdened and compared to anyone, not even to me”.

Carlo Ancelotti wanted Rodrygo to take the penalty against Osasuna to get him out of his goal drought. Regarding his drought, sources from the club say: "He is an insatiable warrior and it is not enough for him to be good, he wants numbers." He always bounces back and from the club they believe this time he will.

FabrizioRomano: "Kroos to Manchester City? Honestly guys these rumours are not confirmed at all on any side. As always, the player will decide his future in the second part of the season. There is no panic from the player's side or the club at the moment and his focus is 100% on Real Madrid."

Pep Guardiola did everything to convince Jude Bellingham to sign for City. He told the player, in a 3-hour conversation, that City have started a winning cycle while Real Madrid was already ending their glorious era. Pep later understood that Bellingham only wanted Real Madrid. He remained a gentleman and wished him luck.

Luka Modric for Real Madrid 🤍🐐

🚨 Mesut Özil defended Cristiano Ronaldo earlier this year:

🗣“I really don't get where this constant negativity from the press about Cristiano comes from… the media is just trying to get clicks, and pundits who don't have a career anymore just want to get attention with his big name and try to make him look bad.

🗣He is soon 38 years old - so what's the surprise that he doesn't score 50 goals a season anymore? Every football fan out there should be happy to have seen him playing world class football for 20 years.

🗣I don't think anyone from the new generation will be able to match his numbers again. He will forever be in his own category.

🗣Everyone should show more respect to one of the greatest athletes in sports history.”
