MADRID (SPAIN) (ITALPRESS) – For one Ballon d’Or winner who has left, another could arrive. After Alexander-Arnold, Carreras, Huijsen, and Mastantuono, Real Madrid is reportedly considering a midfielder, having lost first Kroos and then Modric in the last two seasons. According to “As,” the Blancos’ dream is Rodri, who recently returned to action with Manchester City after a long layoff.

Also on Real’s radar are Nicolò Barella, Enzo Fernandez, and Alexis MacAllister, but all three are players with long-term contracts, and the two Argentines in particular would require a three-figure investment. Rodri, on the other hand, due to his age (29) and contract (expiring in 2027), would be more affordable. First, however, there is a need to sell: the main suspect to leave Madrid is the Brazilian Rodrygo, for whom the Casa Blanca expects to collect a fee between 80 and 100 million euros.

The next few days could be crucial, with the Portuguese club expected to shell out between €20 and €25 million for 50% of his rights.

VALLETTA (MALTA) (ITALPRESS/MNA) – Malta’s EU Commissioner Glenn Micallef has emerged as one of the key beneficiaries in the European Commission’s proposed €2.3 trillion seven-year budget plan, with major increases earmarked for his culture and youth portfolio.
