Return of the Ø

Martin Odegaard claims that it is his dream to (finally) play for Real Madrid and that the club asked for his return. Martin has seen many changes of scenery ever since signing for Los Blancos back in 2015. However, it seems like the O will actually be fighting for the white shirt next season.

Happy Birthday David Alaba

Clutch-semiro

Casi went clutch mode in his last match for Brazil, scoring the winner right at the death.

Transfer Stuff

• AS report that Real Madrid are interested in Alexander Isak. This is a rumour we were bound to see sooner or later, isn’t it... It does make sense however, if you consider the younster’s age and talent. Isak simply has tremendous upside. Of course, I wouldn’t be too sure about his minutes just yet, as Benzema is a full-time starter at CF. Arsenal also seem interested in the young star.

• Haaland would prefer a move either to Real Madrid or the Premier League, according to

BILD.

Have a great day and build the hype for the final phase of EURO 2020. Oh and may the Madridismo be with you.
