from skysports.com = Lyon have announced that star striker Karim Benzema is to become the latest player to join Real Madrid. The French forward had been linked with Manchester United, but big-spending Real - who have already captured Kaka and Cristiano Ronaldo in record deals - have won the race. Lyon have said the transfer will be worth at least £30million as new Bernabeu president Florentino Perez continues to build a new era of 'galacticos'. A statement on the French club's official website said: "Lyon announces the agreement with Real Madrid of the transfer of international attacker Karim Benzema for a net minimum value of €35m. "It will also be possible to add various no-claims bonuses related to athletic performances, allowing the deal to reach a maximum amount €41m." Preference It was thought that Benzema would remain at Lyon for one more season in order to concentrate on the 2010 World Cup. However, the Ligue 1 outfit have announced that the attacker told the club's hierarchy that he wanted to join Real, who he preferred to United, this summer. The statement continued: "A few days ago, Karim Benzema informed president Jean Michel Aulas of his wish to join Madrid, which has always been his preference after Lyon, quicker than it was initially considered.

Basically because they are not owned by a chairman or a plc they can get people giving them or financing them. Add tot he fact they have the seal Spanish Government they can never go bankrupt as the government will underwrite any debt so Spanish banks will lend them money at will. They deffo need some defenders like. There's only Sergio Ramos who was decent before they got Albiol. What's happened to Gabriel Heinze? He's just gone shit since he left Man Utd.
Aye Platini is a wanker like, hates England! The chuff on his face when Barca won the CL. Plus he always has to be the centre of attention giving out trophies and shit.
In fairness to Platini he has been saying its disgusting & vulgar and that he feels embarrassed by Real Madrids spending. So he is still following his belief that he would like to see financial fair play whether it be an English, Spanish, Italian club. Blatter on the other hand has continued with his amazing double standards stating that Madrid spending 80mil on Ronaldo is good for football but on the other hand slating the English league for the amount of money they spend.
