Real Madrid are already in Montreal, a destination chosen by Zidane for the first nine days after their return to work.

Atleti have broken the bank shelling out 127 million euro for a promising striker, albeit one who has just had a single successful campaign with Benfica in the Portuguese league.

More reasons to be optimistic about the future, after Florentino climbed down off his high horse to announce the purchase of CD Tacón.
