Real Madrid news

Vinicius Junior stormed straight down the tunnel after he was subbed off in the second of half of Real Madrid's Clasico clash with Barcelona. Goals from Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham saw Real Madrid go in at the break 2-1 up after Fermin Lopez had briefly levelled for Barcelona at the Bernabeu. However, Vinicius was furious at his withdrawal and rather than take a place on the bench, he went stomping back to the home dressing room.

Kylian Mbappe has joined Cristiano Ronaldo and Ronaldinho in an exclusive Clasico club after finding the target again for Real Madrid in a crunch clash with arch-rivals Barcelona. The World Cup-winning France international has made a habit of doing that since becoming another ‘Galactico’ at Santiago Bernabeu in the summer of 2024 - with the exploits of all-time greats being emulated.

Kylian Mbappe has been told that he is still “missing something” in his bid to land an elusive Ballon d’Or. The France international was expected to dominate Golden Ball discussions as all-time greats Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo step out of that spotlight, but he has been informed by a fellow World Cup winner that being a ‘Galactico’ at Real Madrid may not be enough.

Lamine Yamal has risked the wrath of Real Madrid supporters once again after the Barcelona forward sent out a defiant message ahead of the first Clasico of the season. Having already received scorn from the Blaugrana’s bitter rivals, the 18-year-old decided to prod them for a second time before Sunday’s mouth-watering fixture at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Gianluigi Donnarumma has finally settled one of football’s biggest debates — Erling Haaland or Kylian Mbappe? The Italian shotstopper, who has shared dressing rooms with both superstars in recent years, offered a clear verdict on who hits the ball harder. Having experienced their brilliance up close, Donnarumma’s insight carries unique weight in a discussion that continues to divide everyone.

How to watch La Liga match between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham has fired an ominous warning to his England team-mate Marcus Rashford, saying he’s back to his best physical condition and relishing playing in El Clasico. Real lead Barcelona by two points at the top of La Liga ahead of the hotly-anticipated clash at the Bernabeu, with more than just bragging rights at stake.

Marcus Rashford could be thrust into the starting line-up for Barcelona for the highly-anticipated El Clasico clash on Sunday following another damaging injury to a key Barca star just hours before the match. The England international has made an excellent start to his loan spell at Barcelona, bagging five goals and six assists in 12 appearances across all competitions.

The war of words ahead of El Clasico shows no sign of abating with Madrid captain Dani Carvajal planning to confront Barca wonderkid Lamine Yamal at the end of the match over what he sees as "disrespectful" remarks in the build-up to the hotly-anticipated clash between the Spanish giants. Speaking on a Twitch stream ahead of the game, Yamal stoked the ill-feeling between the two sides, saying: "They (Real) steal, they complain, and they do things".

Real Madrid have chalked up a transfer plan for Endrick that will allow the out-of-favour striker to make a January exit, as he desperately wants more minutes under his belt to convince Carlo Ancelotti to give him a spot in Brazil's 2026 World Cup squad. Los Blancos beat Paris Saint-Germain to his signature three years ago and forked out a massive €60 million (£52m/$64m) to Palmeiras. However, his time in the Spanish capital has not gone according to plan.

Lamine Yamal mocked YouTuber Ibai Lanos and told him to "go to sleep" during a wild celebration after the Barcelona wonderkid saw his team to victory in a "Clasico" in Gerard Piqué's Kings League. His over-the-top gestures came hot on the heels of another fiery moment during a Twitch stream, where he accused Real Madrid of “stealing and complaining”, a dig that has not gone down well within the Los Blancos dressing room.

The Real Madrid dressing has responded angrily to Lamine Yamal's comments about the club as tensions ahead of El Clasico reach boiling point. Los Blancos are supposedly frustrated with Yamal, whose off the pitch antics are beginning to get under the skin of the players in the Spanish capital. Ahead of Sunday's game, Yamal has added fuel to the fire.

As Marcus Rashford prepares to face Real Madrid as Barcelona's most productive player this season, fresh from scoring two classy goals against Olympiacos in the Champions League, it is worth remembering that the striker was mocked in some quarters for having the audacity to think he could even play for the Blaugrana after two disappointing seasons, let alone rip it up for them.
