Early on Friday morning, we discussed Don Balon’s apparent obsession with Real Madrid and Harry Kane.
Literally posting a new article daily, the Spanish website have been fiddling with the figures, losing and gaining €15m here and there, but they’ve been consistent in one thing: the transfer is done.
So much so, in fact, that Florentino Pérez has already ‘reserved’ the number 9 shirt, currently worn by Karim Benzema, for the Tottenham striker.
This comes after the understanding of there being little chance of the (former?) France international being at Santiago Bernabeu next season after a ‘disastrous’ campaign, with the club keen on Kane leading their frontline going forward.
Once again, talk of a swap deal involving Gareth Bale and around €100m is included, which should be enough for Real Madrid to get the Tottenham star.
They might be obsessed with Harry Kane, but we’re starting to get obsessed with Don Balon, because we’re always keen to see what angle they’re going to take next, having covered every single one we can think of so far.
If there’s one thing we can commend them for (and we’re saying this very lightheartedly), it’s their creativity.
