Real Madrid news

Real Madrid's young sensation Endrick might be on his way out of the Bernabeu in the upcoming transfer window. Xabi Alonso has reportedly approved a loan move but the 19-year-old has his eyes fixated on representing Brazil at next year's World Cup, and has created a set of deciding factors regarding which club he will join next.

Oliver Kahn has warned Bundesliga clubs that clinging to "tradition" will only see them fall further behind Europe’s elite. The Bayern Munich legend urged German football to follow Real Madrid’s forward-thinking model, stressing that long-term financial planning and strategic investment are key if the league wants to compete with the Premier League’s global power.

Real Madrid coach Xabi Alonso is willing to sell anyone except French forward Kylian Mbappe to sign Juventus' star Kenan Yildiz, according to agent Giovanni Branchini. The Turkish international has garnered interest from multiple European clubs, and Alonso, who was winding down his playing career at Bayern Munich while the winger was coming through the German side's youth academy, is eager for a reunion.

Barcelona star Lamine Yamal has ignited pre-Clasico controversy by claiming Real Madrid “steal” during a cheeky exchange on Twitch. The 18-year-old made the remark while chatting with streamer Ibai Llanos, comparing Madrid to a Kings League team known for benefiting from refereeing decisions. The comment comes just days before El Clasico at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Marcus Rashford is looking forward to gracing his first Clasico, with the Barcelona loanee picking out his favourite memory from previous meetings between the Blaugrana and Real Madrid. Unsurprisingly, Lionel Messi figures prominently as collective minds are cast back to iconic moments from the past - with the Argentine GOAT having often starred against the Blancos.

Premier League icon, Dwight Yorke, named the best striker in Europe and brutally ranked Harry Kane, Erling Haaland & Kylian Mbappe as the trio continue their blistering form on the pitch. Arguably, the three best forwards in the world are going through a purple patch for their respective sides. And Yorke, who has never been shy of an opinion, shared his personal pecking order in a recent interview.

Barcelona’s El Clasico preparations have been hit by fresh concerns as Frenkie de Jong and Andreas Christensen both missed training on Thursday, leaving Hansi Flick anxious before Sunday’s Bernabeu showdown. While Raphinha and Ferran Torres near full recovery, Flick’s tactical headaches deepen against a Real Madrid side powered by Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Junior.

Jude Bellingham is feeling “really good” after bringing his goal drought at Real Madrid to a close. The England international midfielder was on target for the Blancos in a Champions League win over Juventus, with the 22-year-old opening his account for the 2025-26 campaign after recovering from summer shoulder surgery. There is now the promise of much more to come.

Thibaut Courtois claimed that Real Madrid are "expecting a victory" in El Clasico as Barcelona prepare for their biggest test in a bid to retain the La Liga crown. Los Blancos have had a smooth sailing so far this campaign, but there remains a blot, a significant one. Their scars from their 5-2 thrashing at the hands of Atletico Madrid last month still sting like an open wound.

Juventus manager Igor Tudor admitted that it was “a shame” his team could not score and secure at least a point from their 1-0 defeat to Real Madrid on Wednesday. The coach urged all players to take responsibility and leadership, noting that the team is behind where he would like them to be. Tudor also lamented the absence of the influence of champions that the club once had but stressed that the current players must be given confidence.

Xabi Alonso has publicly addressed the growing frustration surrounding Endrick's lack of game time at Real Madrid, urging the 19-year-old to wait for his chance at the Spanish club. The young Brazilian, who is yet to feature under the new coach, is the subject of January transfer rumours as Los Blancos' established stars continue to perform.

Harry Kane has been urged to become a ‘Galactico’ alongside Kylian Mbappe at Real Madrid, with the England captain being told that “Real Madrid would be interested” in doing a deal with Bayern Munich. It has been revealed that there are clauses in the striker’s contract at the Allianz Arena which can be activated in the summer of 2026 - with a return to the Premier League also being mooted for the former Tottenham striker.

Xabi Alonso has lauded Arda Guler’s impact, stating the 20-year-old gives Real Madrid "a better team dynamic" following the 1-0 Champions League win over Juventus on Wednesday. The manager also praised Jude Bellingham, who scored the winner, as "one of the most complete" players in the world after recovering from injury. Alonso also discussed defensive resilience and the upcoming Clasico.
