Fabio Coentrao joins Real Madrid

[Domino- 116]

I personally particularly worried about Europe Real Madrid not so much from Barcelona. Mourinho to make the most of their teams in their second year at the club more like Inter. But you're right that this year will be even more difficult especially for the Champions League

Jose is forming a good team.

But where is the youth from the academy???

Real Madrid is a bad place for youth, and will even less with Mourinho.

Chelsea should buy some of their youth.

Sergio Canales, Ezequiel Garay and Pedro Leon, sí senor.

Sergio Canales, Ezequiel Garay and Pedro Leon, sí senor.

Canales is likely to be sold. Garay's being used as player-swap deal for Coentrao & Leon's likely to go to Valencia

I told you it was BS about him and Chelsea, and it was a tactic to raise the price of the player when they mention Chelsea.

You guys don't listen, and instead like to listen to unreliable sources that just throws the name of Chelsea for fun.

Madrid move for Coentrao

Real Madrid have struck a deal which will see them land Portugal international full-back Fabio Coentrao.

The Spanish giants have agreed to pay Benfica €30million (£27m), the Portuguese club have confirmed.

The completion of the transfer is subject to the player passing a medical and agreeing personal terms.

Coentrao was under contract at Benfica until 2016, forcing Real to dig deep in pursuit of his signature.

He is considered to be one of Europe's most promising left-backs, with his ability to get forward as well as defend marking him out as a useful addition to any side.

Shone

The 23-year-old shone at the 2010 World Cup and has been a stand-out performer for Benfica since becoming a first-team regular in 2009.

A statement released by Benfica read: "Benfica announces that it has reached an initial agreement with Real Madrid for the permanent transfer of the player Fabio Coentrao for the value of 30million euros.

"We also announce that the transfer will be formalised once the player completes the medical tests which he will undertake, with the consent of Benfica, and agreement of the contract between the player and Real Madrid."

The deal could also see Real's Argentinian central defender Ezequiel Garay

move to Portugal in part exchange.
