Schuster Wants A Striker, Baptista and Callejon A Done Deal
Schuster Wants A Striker, Baptista and Callejon A Done Deal
OK, after the signing of Van Der Vaart, I thought to myself, “how the hell is Real Madrid going to go another seasons without cover for Raul and Van Nistelrooy, Real Madrid MUST buy a quality striker, no matter what”.
And today came a start to something which could lead to Real Madrid signing a striker. Schuster says he wants a striker no matter what, as he does not believe Real Madrid have enough cover for Van Nistelrooy and Raul. I personally do not see Raul as a striker, I think he is more of a midfielder scorer.
Schuster says he wants a new number 9. My ideal would be Adriano (Inter Mila) and second preference would be Klas Jan Huntelaar, assuming that Benzema is not available.
However, Real’s sports chiefs are split over who to go for, . Pedja Mijatovic wants Ajax striker Klaas Jan Huntelaar, while Miguel Angel Portugal prefers Valencia’s David Villa. I hate Villa, he is not what Real Madrid is looking for, Real Madrid want individual talents, Adriano and Huntelaar have plenty of that, Villa relies too much on service and is not consistent enough. Adriano is also not consistent but he makes up for it with his pure class. He can score goals, some would only dream of scoring. David Villa cannot do Adriano can.
I would say, Real Madrid go for Adriano or Huntelaar. Adriano has got more ability but he is a brazillian, which means that he can be easily distracted by money and other stuff. It also means that he would have a bad attitude like all Brazallians have when they talk about “being happy at a club”,
Huntelaar may not offer the striking force that Adriano can but Huntelaar being a Dutch would provide commitment, hard work and professionalism.
Anyway, moving on to other news ( I say that a lot I know)
Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon will meet with Racing Santander counterpart Francisco Pernia this week.
Top of the agenda will be the future of Ezequiel Garay, with Pernia adamant the Real summer signing remain in Santander for the new season.
Pernia also wants to boost his defence with a Real loan signing and will seek to finalise a deal for either Miguel Torres or Javi Garcia.
Miguel Torres should not be sold for any reason other than he himself says so. I think Miguel Torres provides an excellent option to Schuster as Torres can play anywhere in defense and most of all, he is better in the air than most Real Madrid defenders like Cannavaro and Salgado. Ramos and Pepe are brilliant in the air.
Surprisingly,Real Mallorca have snapped up Real Madrid winger Juanmi Callejon who I thought Real Madrid would loan somewhere, but the good news is that Real Madrid have not lost him completely, read on to find out why.
Callejon is regarded as one of the Castilla’s prospects and Mallorca beat Espanyol and Real Zaragoza to land the attacker.
The 20 year-old will sign a four-year contract with his new club this week, with 75 per cent of his registration being transferred to Mallorca. Yes, Real Madrid retain25% rights, which means that without Real Madrid consent , Callejo cannot be transferred to another big club.
UPDATE:
Roma have struck terms with Real Madrid for Julio Baptista.
Roma have had a £7 million offer accepted by Real, with another £1.5 million due if they were to qualify for the Champions League next season.
Baptista’s agent, Herminio Menendez, confirmed yesterday that an agreement had been struck between the two clubs. The Brazilian’s minders are due in Italy today to thrash out personal terms with Roma officials.
Say Bye Bye to Baptista, I hope he gets to his original best at Roma and may move on to a club as big as Real Madrid, something like Manchester United or AC Milan. He had no place in Schuster’s squad especially after Van der Vaart was signed.
Though it is still not official but when so many sources say it is done then I guess I might as well consider it done. HALA MADRID.
