Real Madrid target raid for De Gea and Hazard before transfer ban

Real Madrid plan the biggest spending spree in football history — despite a Fifa transfer ban.

Real Madrid plan the biggest spending spree in football history — despite a Fifa transfer ban.

hey want to splash an astonishing £250MILLION this summer, with £80m Eden Hazard their No.1 target as they chase three Premier League stars.

Sergio Aguero and David De Gea are also on their wish-list, plus Paul Pogba and Robert Lewandowski.

Real have NO intention of selling Gareth Bale — but Cristiano Ronaldo COULD be sold in a £100m deal with Paris St Germain.

The Spanish giants and neighbours Atletico Madrid were yesterday banned for breaking rules in the transfer of minors from abroad.

Both clubs will appeal the decision, which prevents them from signing players in the summer transfer window and next January.

But, like with Barcelona in 2014, Real hope the Court of Arbitration for Sport will temporarily suspend the ban, allowing a summer splurge.

However, that would leave the La Liga side, who branded the ban “absolutely unjustified”, facing inflated fees, with selling clubs eager to cash in on their desperation.

Fifa confirmed they could buy players during the ban — but not register them.

Bernabeu boss Zinedine Zidane is a huge admirer of Chelsea playmaker Hazard, 25, and targeted the Belgian when he was the club’s No2.

Juventus are expecting an £80m bid for Pogba and De Gea will leave Manchester United if Real match the keeper’s £30m get-out clause.
