OFFICIAL: Reinier leaves Real Madrid to join Granada on loan

Real Madrid youngster Reinier Jesus has officially completed his loan move to Granada FC on a season-long loan. The Brazilian attacking midfielder has been at the club since 2020 but is yet to make his first-team debut.

The Brazilian prospect arrived from Flamengo in a €30 million deal but have spent the last four seasons on loan at Borussia Dortmund, Girona, and Frosinone. The young midfielder has also sustained persistent injuries in the last few years.

Carlo Ancelotti had no place for him in the first-team setup and Reinier has finally completed his transfer to Granada who are currently in the Segunda Division.

OFFICIAL: Dani Ceballos is not leaving Real Madrid on deadline day

Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos was surprisingly expected to leave in the final days of the summer transfer window but the club has now closed the door on the midfielder’s departure.

The Spaniard featured for Los Blancos a couple of times last season and is not receiving the minutes he desires at the Santiago Bernabeu. Carlo Ancelotti reportedly tried his best to persuade the midfielder to stay beyond the summer. Ceballos leaving this late in the transfer window would have made things complicated for Real Madrid.

Real Madrid expecting offers for midfielder Dani Ceballos

Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos has been reportedly monitored by rival club Real Betis who are expected to make a serious offer for their former club academy graduate. Ceballos has been frustrated with his limited role at Madrid and managed to play in only nine minutes in three games last season.

Los Blancos are open to offers for the Spanish midfielder but would sanction a loan move if there is no compulsory purchase option next summer. Betis have identified Ceballas as the perfect candidate to replace Nabil Fekir who is set for the UAE move.

Ceballos is reportedly valued at €15 million and Real Madrid would not stand in the player’s way if he decides to leave Santiago Bernabeu before deadline day.

Two clubs pushing to sign Real Madrid star this summer

AS Monaco and Real Betis are reportedly pushing to sign Dani Ceballos from Real Madrid. The midfielder is open to an exit and is weighing his options this summer.

As per a report in MARCA, Carlo Ancelotti does not want Ceballos to leave but the midfielder is interested in leaving the club. The Spaniard is keen on playing regularly and understands that he will not get it at Real Madrid.

Real Madrid will try to keep the midfielder, but will be open to a loan with obligation to buy deal if Ceballos is pushing to leave.

Como complete the signing of Real Madrid wonderkid

As per Fabrizio Romano, newly promoted Serie A side Como have completed the signing of Nico Paz from Real Madrid. The Argentine attacking midfielder is seen as one of the best talents in the Real Madrid academy but it is quite clear that he will struggle for game time with Los Blancos.


Como, who also signed the likes of Raphael Varane and Pepe Reina, will pay €6m for him. Real Madrid have inserted a 50% sell on clause and a buy back option in the contract.

Andriy Lunin will not make a move this summer

The Ukrainian goalkeeper played a pivotal role for Real Madrid in their Champions League and La Liga triumphs last season in the absence of No.1 goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois. But, Lunin was expected to leave this summer in order to seek a new challenge elsewhere.

The 25-year-old goalkeeper was not ready to play second fiddle to the Belgian goalkeeper, as he wanted guaranteed first-team opportunities in the ongoing season. But, a new report from Mundo Deportivo suggests that Lunin might end up staying at Bernabeu this summer.

However, Real Madrid will run the risk of losing Lunin as a free agent next summer, as his current deal with the club expires in 2025.

Como submit offer for Real Madrid youngster Nico Paz

Real Madrid midfielder Nico Paz is one of the players in contention to leave the Spanish capital amid interest from Italian side Como this summer. Madrid are reportedly seeking €10million for Paz, but have lowered their demands and now have agreed on a fee of less than €8m.

According to The Athletic, Como have tabled an offer in the region of €7-8 million for the 19-year-old, who made his senior-team debut for Real Madrid last November. They will also want to add a percentage of his rights, and a sell-on clause in the deal.

The finer details of this deal is yet to be finalized, but Como remain optimistic about this transfer.

Endrick could leave on loan as competition for places at Real Madrid intensifies


According to Spanish media outlet AS, Real Madrid youngster Endrick could leave the club on loan in the January transfer window if he does not get sufficient playing time.

The Brazilian was signed by Real Madrid in December of 2022 but he has just arrived at the club last month, after turning 18. The striker is said to have a clear path for his career, despite all the competition at Real Madrid.

Real Madrid youngster expected to leave this summer

Real Madrid teenager Nico Paz is expected to make a permanent move away from Carlo Ancelotti’s side in the final days of the summer transfer window. La Liga clubs Girona and Alaves have reportedly enquired about the terms of the deal.

Paz had an excellent 2023/24 campaign with Real Madrid Castilla and contributed to ten goals and four assists in 29 matches, while making his senior debut back in November 2023. The youngster has also attracted interest from Cesc Fabregas’ Como, who are monitoring the defender’s situation at Bernabeu.

Como is reportedly pushing over a permanent transfer with Real, insisting on a buy-back clause in the contract. There is no space for the young defender in the Real Madrid first-team given the immense competition for the starting spot.

Carlo Ancelotti gives update on Real Madrid’s transfer plans

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has reiterated that the club has decided against signing a central defender and central midfielder in this summer transfer window. Los Blancos have brought in Endrick and Kylian Mbappe and won’t make further signings in the final two weeks of the transfer window.

“The squad is closed and now we have to wait 12 days for it to finish. We don’t need centre-backs because [David] Alaba will recover soon and properly,” Ancelotti told reporters.

“We also have young players ready to play for us. Unfortunately, Joan [Martinez] is out injured, but we also have Jacobo [Ramon] and [Raul] Asencio. They can make a contribution in some matches.”

Real Madrid only have two senior centre-backs available in Antonio and Eder Militao, whereas David Alaba is still nursing his ACL injury and will return later this year. Club legend Nacho has opted to leave this summer, whereas youngster Joan Martinez is still fresh off a serious knee injury.
