Real Madrid have had to deal with a serious injury blow to their midfield with the news that Luka Modric will be out for a while.
After taking time to settle in Spain The Croatian has become an indispensable part of the current Real Madrid machine. With him now injured it’s even more surprising that Real Madrid are reportedly preparing to let another big midfielder go.
Sami Khedira, whose Real Madrid contract expires next summer, has been the subject of intense speculation with English clubs regularly linked to The World Cup winner.
But latest reports suggest that German giants Bayern Munchen may be about to take the lad home. Broadsheet newspaper The Independent says that a deal could be on.
Arsenal and Chelsea target Sami Khedira has signed a pre-contract with Bayern Munich, according to reports in Spain.
It’s difficult to see what Real Madrid don’t like about Khedira. The partnership of Modric and Kroos is so strong but Khedira offers the sort of squad strength that allows a manager to rotate, even in big games.
Khedira is a marvellous player who has his best years ahead of him. After serious injury he returned at The World Cup to show some of the best form of his career. Perhaps it’s simply a case of the player wanting a move to ensure that he gets first team football in the prime of his career.
Let’s see Sami at his best. Real Madrid fans: is it a mistake to let him go?
