Hey some more transfer news for you:
Atletico Madrid rival Barcelona for Solari:
Atletico Madrid have joined the race for Real Madrid midfielder Santiago Solari.
The Argentine will not be offered new terms by Real and can leave the Santiago Bernabeu on a Bosman at the end of this season.
Solari has already held talks with Barcelona, but his £2 million-a-year personal demands are proving too steep for president Joan Laporta's new wage structure.
Atletico are in a similar position, but sports director Toni Munoz knows Solari is settled in Madrid and hopes he will lower his asking price to remain in the city and sign with Real's big rivals for next season.
Everton won't block Gravesen's Real Madrid move:
Everton accept they will lose Thomas Gravesen this month if Real Madrid make a firm offer for the Danish international.
While Everton boss Dave Moyes was quick to deny any contact yesterday with Real over the midfielder, a club insider admitted to AS: "Who is going to say to him that he cannot go to Madrid? It is one of those opportunities that appears once in a lifetime."
Real are ready to offer £2 million for Gravesen, who is off contract at the end of this season. Contrary to reports earlier this week, Gravesen's agent, John Sivebaek, has not been in Madrid in recent days.
He was due in Spain on Monday, but cancelled the trip to remain in Denmark. Gravesen has instructed Sivebaek to approach Real about how genuine their interest is.
