Former Barcelona president Joan Gaspart has blasted Dani Carvajal over the fiery confrontation with Lamine Yamal in the wake of Real Madrid's victory in the Clasico on Sunday.

Bayern Munich are preparing for the future beyond Harry Kane and have identified Hoffenheim’s in-form striker Fisnik Asllani as a potential long-term back-up.

Real Madrid may have gone five points clear in La Liga after edging Barcelona in El Clasico, but Vinicius Junior’s latest antics have somewhat overshadowed the triumph.

Real Madrid have confirmed that captain Dani Carvajal will be sidelined for up to three months after sustaining a right knee injury during Sunday’s fiery Clasico against Barcelona.

Jude Bellingham could face a potential ban after being caught making an X-rated gesture during Real Madrid's 2-1 victory over Barcelona in El Clasico.

Marcus Rashford has vowed to “keep fighting” after Barcelona’s 2-1 defeat to Real Madrid in his first-ever El Clasico appearance.

Vinicius Junior's petulant reaction to be taken off during Real Madrid's 2-1 win over fierce rivals Barcelona on Sunday reportedly didn't go unnoticed by his colleagues.

Real Madrid legend Iker Casillas has been left reeling after discovering that his longtime housekeeper and a security guard allegedly stole five luxury watches worth around €50,000 from his private collection and replaced them with counterfeits.

Marcus Rashford is reported to have made his mind up where he wants to play next season, albeit he is still only in the early stages of a loan with Barcelona and his long-term future is far from certain due to the Catalan club's delicate financial situation.
