Former Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu has revealed that the Catalan giants made an official move for Kylian Mbappe following Neymar's departure to Paris Saint-Germain. The bombshell revelation sheds light on the frantic summer of 2017, when the Blaugrana were left searching for a superstar to fill the void left by the Brazilian's record-breaking exit.

Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior was caught in a heated exchange with Espanyol defender Omar El Hilali during Los Blancos' 2-0 victory at the RCDE Stadium. Footage has emerged showing the Brazilian winger engaging in a relentless war of words with his opponent, allegedly calling him an "idiot".

Kylian Mbappe is reportedly at odds with some of his Real Madrid teammates who have apparently taken exception to his recent behaviour. L'Equipe claims that an increasing number of the Spanish club's players are frustrated with the 27-year-old forward's antics, leading to tensions within the camp.

Vinicius Junior has been the chief beneficiary of Xabi Alonso's dismissal at Real Madrid, as the statistics unequivocally show.

Paris Saint-Germain have turned their attention toward the Spanish capital as they look to snatch one of Real Madrid’s most prized academy graduates. The French giants are reportedly weighing up a move for teenage sensation Joan Martinez to lead their defensive revolution.

Real Madrid have been hit with a significant defensive setback following the news that Ferland Mendy will miss the remainder of the campaign. The Frenchman was forced off early during the recent clash at the RCDE Stadium and the subsequent diagnosis has confirmed the worst-case scenario for Alvaro Arbeloa.

Real Madrid have reportedly added Aston Villa manager Unai Emery to their shortlist of candidates to take over the reins at the Santiago Bernabeu. The Spanish giants are beginning their search for a successor to Alvaro Arbeloa, whose tenure appears to be coming to an end as Los Blancos face back-to-back seasons without a major trophy.

Vinicius Junior has sent a defiant message of loyalty to Real Madrid supporters following his match-winning performance against Espanyol. The Brazilian forward, who found the net twice in a 2-0 La Liga victory at the RCDE Stadium on Sunday, took to social media to reassure the fans of his commitment to the cause.

Real Madrid head coach Alvaro Arbeloa has jumped to the defence of Kylian Mbappe following criticism surrounding the striker's recent holiday in Sardinia. The French superstar travelled to the Italian island with actress girlfriend Ester Exposito while recovering from a muscular injury, leading to questions over his commitment.

Real Madrid loanee Endrick continued his impressive form by scoring in Lyon’s 4-2 win over Rennes. The Brazilian teenager admitted after the game that he would be open to extending his stay at the Ligue 1 club, having made the transition from Spain to France seamlessly.

Zinedine Zidane could have returned to Real Madrid for a third spell as manager, but he has reportedly turned the club down.
