He'll be in the club's books, being on the match fit squad for more than 3 months/season remains to be seen. Nothing the club can do about it right now, I just hope he isn't given a pity renewal in 2028..
By far our best midfielder this season even when had a drop from Dec to Feb. Other dudes have been underperforming for multiple seasons but fly smoothly under the radar.
Btw Arancha yesterday said that Perez might not necessarily send "the offer" on Tuesday, it could be later. Who knows? He might not send one at all..
They don't have Mou - Mendes connection which you were alluding. This is Mourinho's last opportunity to compete for the titles at top evel. That will be his priority. If it was to make money through Mendes clients, he could ask for random Mendes players than Dumfries, Calafiori too.
For those who want to know who Mateus Fernandes is, how he fits in, and what he can bring to Real Madrid.

I think some of you guys are underrating Paz. Hope the club finds a way to utilize his talent, even if they let him stay at Como another year for CL as the dust settles on whatever new roster we create. I guess we have to really see who Mendes’ clients are and it’ll make some of these rumors make sense. Fernandes for 80 million is wild, he is promising but isn’t on that level of talent. But it seems like every mid is being quoted at 70-80 million anyway.
If Arsenal doesn't want to sell Calafiori, Schlotterbeck can be an attainable LCB option due to 55-60 ME buyout.
Getting Mateus will be awesome but not bringing back Paz means this midfield more or less is the same
I don't understand how he improves upon what we have as starters.. or even gives another extra dimension worth the trouble.
IMO even if Arsenal want to sell, how much are they selling for? It won't be less than €75-90m, maybe more. Gvardiol will be slightly more expensive (€90-100m) if he doesn't renew but there is a significant upgrade in quality. Schlotterbeck for me is the best 'available' CB. I thought that his RC won't be active till next summer.
Mendes sent over Vitinha and Joao Neves to Paris when they weren't exactly the hottest commodities on the market and look how that turned out.
I want Nico Paz here but the problem remains the roster construction. We need to sort out a lot of players on the roster; Jude, Vini, Mbappe, Valverde and Arda before we can properly utilize Paz. For me, Arda must be developed and counted upon.
A lot of the credit goes for that goes to Luis Campos. The same man who worked with Mourinho to scout Modric and insist that Perez signs him even though IIRC gramps had a raging boner for Cazorla at the time..
We just released a comunicado oficial saying we bid 150 for Julian Alvarez and Atleti rejected it. We are a clown show, why publish a comunicado for this. and for Julian.... ugh
He is not worth that much and with Mbappe and Vini around he is not needed. Unless there is something brewing behind the scenes regarding Vini, this bid is puzzling to say the least. What an anticlimax.
🚨 OFFICIAL COMMUNICATION FROM REAL MADRID:Real Madrid C. F. communicates that, after the meeting of the Board of Directors held today, he has made an offer of 150 million euros to the Club Atlético de Madrid for the federative rights of the player Julián Álvarez.After… pic.twitter.com/fB1We9P7ES— Madrid Zone (@theMadridZone) June 9, 2026 Why does this feel like a "we made a bid now we move on" sort of announcements. If we dont bid again then this has winning the election ploy written all over it.
"Oh well, I tried" I don't think the club has ever released an official statement on a rejected bid. What a joke.
Florentino probably inflated his final vote tally with this mystery saga. And it turns out to be an absolute disappointment
Well, Don Florentino got his votes off the buzz. Now we got the popcorn fart. Bid made, rejected, done. Back to the rest of the transfer window.
Yea. It's all for show. Last line about Atletico referring to release clause(500 ME) shows that. None of Florentino's Galactico signings went through official statements about a bid rejected. It's a sham.
