Real Madrid Deal made with American firm for publicity rights

Real Madrid have 200 million euros to spend next summer it was reported by MARCA several days ago and if necessary some of that money could be used in the upcoming January transfer window, which does appear to be the case due to poor form, injuries and work only partly completed last August.

In no way would this amount spent on reinforcements be a problem financially for the club especially as they have recently signed a new commercial deal worth 200 million euros with an American company for publicity rights. More business in order to boost the squad which is the heart of Madrid.

It is not as though all the money will be pumped in straight away to the squad but some can be used with the deal for the next four years.

Meeting with Mubadala

Real diretors will meet with the owners of the investment fund Mubadala, Cepsa, during the Club World Cup in December, in Abu Dabi, so as to discuss their existing deal. Cepsa have replaced IPIC whgo had a deal four years ago with Real which included paying for the cost of restructuring the Bernabeu.

Poor relationship with Urrutia

There is a poor relationship between Athletic and Real Madrid at board level. Florentino Perez will not be at the match as has been the case in recent years, which is very different from the friendly atmosphere that exists between himself and the Real Sociedad and Eibar boards. There is set to be a tense discussion over the future of Kepa.

Not thinking of Messi

There has been plenty of talk about the future of Messi. Several clubs have tried to pursuade the Argentine that they can offer him a better option than he has at Barcelona but Real Madrid have made no attempt. They are sure he will stay at Barcelona and also they do not like the idea of spending 500 million on the 30-year-old.
