Danilo has already signed for Madrid…but under strange circumstances. It was announced at midnight, the price is 31 million, clearly a high price for a player who will be free next season. A player with a good future, who has excelled at Porto under Lopetegui, but a player who after all that was not at the last World Cup. He solves a problem that does not exist because Carvajal (the first stone plucked from the Madrid youth academy, remember?) has made that position his own. He plays well, with quality, nerve and delivery, performances that have got him into the Spanish national squad. And there is also Arbeloa, who has a deal until June 2016.
Even in the habit of the compulsive shopper that characterises Florentino since he arrived at the club, the shopping spree this year seems a bit excessive. Asensio, from Mallorca, Ødegaard, the young prodigy who trains with the first team but plays (badly) for Castilla, Lucas Silva, who has not improved anything on Illarramendi (who is also very charitable on his day, by the way), and the young goalkeeper Batalla. There are many signings that increase the number of players (and the non-EU players, such as Danilo, James, Chicharito and Lucas) beyond the tolerable number in the regulations.
Investigated as they are by FIFA for the alleged illegal recruitment of young players from other countries, an explanation could be that Madrid fear a sudden ban on signings and they are foreseeing what is ahead. The same as filling a nuclear shelter with water and biscuits. But the big weight, the renewal of the contract of Sergio Ramos, is still not taken into account. With that there seems to be no rush. For Sergio Ramos, who looks at the other big players, some who are better paid than him, it must be strange to see the club release money for other things while they seem to be haggling for his deal. And this with Raúl speaking well of him…
