Report claims Euro 2024 star is eyeing up summer move to Real Madrid
Real Madrid are not actively seeking a replacement for Toni Kroos this summer, according to inside sources. Instead, the club’s sporting department is focusing on securing a deal for Leny Yoro, which currently tops their priority list.
Despite this focus, Real Madrid remains open to exploring opportunities should a favorable market situation arise. Yoro’s acquisition is expected to be a high-cost endeavor. Coupled with the realistic target of Alphonso Davies, the club is inclined towards pursuing any additional deals on a budget.
This financial strategy could benefit Adrien Rabiot, who is reportedly eager to join fellow Frenchmen Ferland Mendy, Aurelien Tchouameni, Eduardo Camavinga, and potentially Kylian Mbappe in Madrid. Rabiot, now a free agent after his contract with Juventus expired last weekend, has been linked to FC Barcelona in recent days. However, his preference seems to lean towards their fierce rivals, Real Madrid, as reported by Tuttomercatoweb.
While the prospect of Rabiot joining Los Blancos might seem unlikely, given that such a deal might not align with the club’s strategic plans, it remains a possibility under specific circumstances.
Real Madrid’s strategy this summer showcases their preference for value-driven acquisitions over splurging on replacements, aligning with their broader financial and team-building goals.

David de Gea Sends Another Message to Erik ten Hag After Man Utd Sacking
David de Gea continues to prove former Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag wrong, earning the Man of the Match award in Fiorentina’s 1-0 win over Genoa.
Since signing with Fiorentina on a one-year contract over the summer, De Gea has shown he still has what it takes after spending 14 months away from professional football.
United released him in 2023 despite his Golden Glove win, choosing to replace him with Andre Onana to align with Ten Hag’s focus on ball-playing ability from the back.
At the time of his departure, De Gea had reportedly agreed to a contract extension before United withdrew the offer.
Following Ten Hag’s sacking this week, De Gea shared his reaction with a simple “pinched fingers” emoji, a symbol often used in Italy to convey frustration or disbelief.
In Thursday’s match, the 33-year-old delivered several critical saves, securing a clean sheet and lifting Fiorentina to fourth in Serie A.
Fiorentina manager Raffaele Palladino praised the victory: “It was a hard-fought, gritty win in a challenging environment. These types of victories build character and give us confidence.”
Palladino has previously described De Gea as “world-class,” applauding him for saving two penalties in Fiorentina’s 2-1 win over AC Milan earlier this month.
“He’s a true champion and role model,” Palladino said. “Every day, we’re grateful to have such a top goalkeeper.”
