Madrid, Spain (My Sportsbook) - Real Madrid has denied reports suggesting it has faxed Premier League clubs with a list of players who it has made available for transfer. Earlier in the week it was claimed that the Spanish club were looking to offload up to 10 first-team players in a bid to help balance the books at the Bernabeu. Real have already signed Brazil star Kaka in a $96 million deal while Cristiano Ronaldo is set to sign from Manchester United for a world record $130 million fee. Valencia's Spain striker David Villa is also believed to be on the verge of joining the big-spending Madrid club for a fee in the region of $57 million. In response, Tottenham Hotspur were linked with a triple raid to sign Arjen Robben, Gabriel Heinze and Klaas-Jan Huntelaar from Real. Meanwhile, former Manchester United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy was reported to be considering a move back to England with Fulham. However, Real have released an official statement denying that they have contacted any other club with a list of unwanted players. "Real Madrid want to categorically deny said information," said the statement. (Courtesy of sportbox.tv) |
