Real Madrid may end interest in David Villa
Real Madrid director of sport Jorge Valdano has revealed the club may end their interest in Valencia striker David Villa because the asking price is too high.
Reports suggest Barca are prepared to pay around €50 million, as well as offer players Bojan Krkic and Jose Martin Caceres, for Villa.
And having already shelled out for Brazilian Kaka this summer, and with a world record offer on the table for Manchester United winger Cristiano Ronaldo, Valdano admits they are not prepared to better that bid.
"If Barca have offered €50 million for Villa, plus Bojan and Caceres, I would sell if I was Valencia because we're not going to try and top that," the Argentinian told Radio Marca.
"We have been in discussions over the last week and there were disagreements. On top of money, they want a player and that was causing problems.
Valdano also confirmed they are unlikely to bring Franck Ribery to the Bernabeu, again because for the price is not right.
Madrid are aiming to keep their squad at 25 players next season, and the arrival of Kaka and Ronaldo means many other names will be available for transfer.
Players such as Arjen Robben, Rafael van der Vaart and Wesley Sneijder could be on their way out of the Bernabeu, and Valdano acknowledges that may cause friction with some squad members.

Zomersolden bij Real
Nu Real Madrid Kaka en bijna Ronaldo heeft vastgelegd, moeten een pak spelers vertrekken uit Santiago Bernabeu.
Op de lijst: Mahamadou Diarra, Gabriel Heinze, Javier Saviola, Royston Drenthe, Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Wesley Sneijder, Arjen Robben en Rafael van der Vaart. Alle Nederlanders moeten dus weg bij Real. Voorlopig telt de de spelerskern 31 namen.
Naast Kaka en Ronaldo wil de Koninklijke nog vier spelers aantrekken: een spits (Villa?), een linksback, een centrale verdediger en een verdedigende middenvelder.

idd ze willen hun kern beperken tot 25 spelers. willen ze er bijkopen, moeten er zelfs nog meer oprotten of dienen die om hun budget te verstevigen.
ze gaan zich nog in nesten werken, wait and see.

In nesten werken, is veel gezegd. De nieuwe chef wil blijkbaar veel transfers doen, om de ploeg te krijgen zoals hij die wil. Dat zorgt dan uiteraard voor veel transfers. Natuurlijk vormen die vers gekochte spelers geen hecht team, en gaan ze daardoor punten verliezen. Het zou al een prestatie zijn moest de trainer daarvan een hecht blok kunnen smeden voor de winterstop.
Die Perez is zo'n beetje de Wim De Koninck van Roeselare, maar deze koopt spelers die het beoogde niveau aankunnen. :)

BARCELONA, Valdes could leave
Earlier today, Barcelona officials and their goalkeeper Victor Valdes (27) have failed to find an agreement concerning his contract's renewal. Both parties wanted to extend the deal until June 2014. Barcelona boss Juan Laporta proposed a salary of 6 million Euros, but Valdes and his agent Gines Carvajal want 9 millions. Now Valdes is at a crossroads : he could leave for a club willing to pay him more or he could stay until the expiration of his current contract (i.e. June 2010). Barcelona are tempted to sell him now to avoid losing him for free in 2010.
> zot geld opnieuw dat spelers verwachten qua loon :s

Chelsea and Manchester United bid for Bayern Munich's Franck Ribery
Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has claimed Chelsea, Manchester United and Barcelona have made offers for France playmaker Franck Ribery.
...
"A player has to respect his contract, in his case until 2011. He is on holiday now and then we want to have a successful season with Franck next year."
Rummenigge is concerned at the figures being splashed around this summer with Real Madrid having spent £56 million on Kaka and agreeing a world-record £80m fee with Manchester United for Cristiano Ronaldo.
"It makes me concerned for the future," he said. "These amounts would not be possible in Germany due to the license agreements but in Spain the rules are different.
"I have already arranged a meeting with (Uefa president) Michel Platini to discuss the matter.
"We need to have new rules regarding financial fairplay."
