REAL MADRID 2011-2012 SIGNINGS | THE NEW & THE OLD? Transfer?

NURI SAHIN (Borussia Dortmund) , CALLEJON (RCD Espanyol), ALTINTOP (Bayern Munich), plus the possible return of young Parejo (Getafe) & rumours about Cesc Fabregas (difficult, but sounding), Tevez (Manchester City), Fernando Llorente (At.Bilbao) & Sergio Aguero (At.Madrid)

The first two are already confirmed new signings for REAL MADRID, Antintop is said will be announced next Saturday & comes "free", while the rest are sounding hard & fast as selections of possible names that are juicy options to consider for the Madrid Club

Sahin new Real Madrid player

Its obvious that Coach Mourinho is planning the next season, that a "new" profile of player is being looked for instead of "Galacticos" - Clubs wants players that sacrifice, have discipline, team players, workers etc - & that better to begin early & quietly before the end of season rumours & lead to price inflations.

While this is good, what about thoses who will leave or the Club has intention of letting them go? Spanish journalists are beginning to make the question & for now some interesting & some surprising names have provisionally floated to the public eye.

• Dudek (Goalkeeper) ends contract
• Garay (Defender), Club willing to transfer
• Gago ( Midfielder), Club listening to offers
• Pedro Leon ( Midfielder), Mourinho never wanted from the beginning
• Lass Diarra (Midfielder), Does not wish to be sub next season, but great last couple of games
• Granero (Midfielder) - surprising, lets wait & see
• Sergio Canales ( Midfielder) - may loan out to another Club
• Adebayor (Forward) , Club not taking buying option
• Kaka (the big name), "playing" with AC Milan & Chelsea. Could be sold.

Stay tuned folks, the summer season, as always, promises to be really interesting in the buying , selling & the players loan front.
