Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos speaks out on Eden Hazard impending arrival at Bernabeu

Sergio Ramos has expressed the optimism that Eden Hazard would give Real Madrid a lot as the Santiago Bernabeu club are determined to sign the Chelsea star this summer.

The Belgium international has openly expressed his desire to join the Spanish club, saying his goodbye after scoring twice for Chelsea to win the Europa League trophy on Wednesday in Baku, Aizerbaijan.

Even Real Madrid President Florentino Perez on Monday was quoted as saying that the Los Blancos are interested in the Stamford Bridge club’s talisman

Hazard is entering the final year of his Chelsea contract and Ramos is very hopeful of linking up with the winger.

Ramos was himself linked with a move away from the Bernabeu after a reported breakdown in his relationship with president Perez.

But he has since reassured fans he will be staying, before calling on the club to sign Hazard, who has just won the Europa League.

‘Eden Hazard is a top player who would give us a lot. I hope he comes, he could give us a lot,” the Real Madrid captain said at a press conference, as cited by the Daily Mail.

‘I am staying at Real Madrid. I’m going on holiday now and will see who we have signed and who we have not.

‘I’m not looking to renew (my contract), I am happy with what I have and I hope these comments mean the “Ramos stuff” is now finished.’

Inter Milan supporters warn club’s new manager Antonio Conte, say “we’re not Juventus”

Reports in Italy state that Inter Milan ultras have warned Antonio Conte that ‘we’re not Juventus’ after the former Chelsea boss was confirmed as the club’s new manager.

Conte signed a three-year contract with Inter and replaced Luciano Spalletti, whose two-season reign in the blue half of San Siro came to an end on Thursday.

According to Football Italia, Conte’s Juve past has caused concern for Inter’s Curva Nord, after his move to San Siro prompted thousands of Bianconeri fans to sign a petition asking for his star to be removed from the club’s stadium.

“We’re not Juve,” read a Facebook post.

“Winning isn’t the only thing that matters for us. We point out firmly and decisively that the Curva Nord certainly can’t forget his black and white past.

“We accept the fact that from certain ‘legal suspects’, the new Coach is freed, having atoned for the sentences that were applicable to him, although the ‘guilt’ for his very long militancy remains indelible, at a club from which we consider ourselves light years away in terms of style and values.

“Our concern, above all, is the moral aspect. Being Inter is beating your opponent, accepting defeats, sentences and not looking for excuses.

“Good luck to Mr. Conte, with the hope of showing us quickly that he is worthy of Inter.”

Paul Pogba accepts Real Madrid condition before his move to join Zinedine Zidane in Spain

Manchester United midfielder Paual Pogba has reportedly accepted Real Madrid’s condition to take cut before his move to the Santiago Bernabeu.

According to a top Spanish journalist, who is privy to the details of the France international transfer to Real Madrid, claims the deal as “practically done”.

A wage drop of around £3million per year, the Sun report, is part of the £150m deal to take the Frenchman to the La Liga giants.

With Eden Hazard set to be Real’s first marquee signing of the summer, it is claimed Pogba will follow the Belgian in a move pushed by shirt sponsors Adidas.

In his weekly segment on Spanish football show ‘El Chiringuito de Jugones’, veteran journalist Eduardo Inda claimed: “Pogba is practically done.

“The first to sign will be Hazard and the next will be Pogba.

“He has agreed to reduce his Manchester United salary: from £13m net per year to £10m.

“Adidas is pushing a lot because he is one of the brand’s two major players.

“I think we are talking about [a fee] between £137m and £150m.”

Inda is the founder of Spanish outlet OKdiario following stints in charge of El Mundo and MARCA, and also predicts Zinedine Zidane will offload three players this summer.

The newspaper had earlier this month that United want to keep the midfielder despite another inconsistent season at Old Trafford.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer may well be happy to see him leave but Red Devils chiefs will demand he hands in a transfer request to lessen the PR blow of letting their record signing go.
