Real Madrid's pink away kits


Real Madrid football club recently unveiled their football jerseys for the 2014-15 season, the club away kits managed to raise eyebrows with its pink color and white stripe which is considered to be not being very masculine and is sure to draw the ridicule of rival supporters of the club. Even the club own supporters might be shaking their head in disbelief at the choice of color. And to think that former Real Madrid manager Mourinho claimed that the players of the club spend more time looking at the mirror, this color would certainly draw some witty comments from the Special One. But the club may have the last laugh as it might turned out to be a big hit for the female football fans and especially the female fans of Cristiano Ronaldo and the club can profit from the sale of jersey to the female supporters. The guys can wear the white one and their girl friends and wives can wear the pink one. ;)

Barcelona want Aguero

Lionel Messi is good friend with Sergio Aguero and it is reported that his contract renewal conditions has one which asked the club to sign Sergio Aguero, we don't know if this information is true but now it has been reported that Barcelona and Luis Enrique are keen to sign the player but a lot will hinge on if Barca is able to sell the other wingers like Pedro and Tello who are not a big part of the club future plans. Signing Aguero will add to the already brilliant attack and with Messi and Aguero showing that they can work well together, it would be great to play the two players together.

Barca interested in signing Koke

Barcelona has evinced interest in signing the 21 year old midfielder Koke of Atletico Madrid and the midfielder admits he is happy with Barcelona FC interest in him. Barca are looking to strengthen their midfield with Fabregas, Alex Song expected to be sold and their main playmaker Xavi is not at his best anymore.

Carlos Puyol will stay on at Barcelona FC!

Carlos Puyol has decided not to join any other smaller teams to further his footballing career and he has instead decided retire from professional football and will take up a new non-playing role at Barcelona FC. He would be working alongside sporting director Andoni Zubizarreta. This is a good sign for the club, and surely Puyol now will be able to convince the sporting director to get world class defender who can fit into Barcelona football philosophy.

Tottenham joined race for Alex Song

Tottenham hotspurs has joined Manchester United, Monaco and Liverpool in the race to sign Alex Song of Barcelona FC who has failed to fit into the squad and is deemed to be unwanted by the club. He was signed by Barcelona after they failed to get Javi Martinez and it proved to be an ill conceived move as he was vastly confined to the bench and only play bit part role. And despite the injuries of main central defender, he wasn't use as backup there even though he was signed to serve that purpose probably because he cannot fit in there very well.

Napoli want Mascherano

Napoli is working out a deal to try to get Barcelona FC's Javier Mascherano to join the club as the current Napoli Rafa Benitez has worked with the player before at Liverpool and know the player quite well and would want him to join his team. However Mascherano is currently Barcelona starting central defensive option and they would unlikely want to let him go without securing the services of a full time central defender first.

Barcelona interested in Marquinhos

Marquinhos is a worried man after his club PSG spent the highest ever transfer fee for a defender to buy David Luiz from Chelsea which is a savvy piece of business done by the selling club. He is concerned about his lack of first team opportunities arising from the arrival of David Luiz and is pleased with Barcelona interest in him though they are yet to make any official approach and all their interests are just rumoured.

Barcelona president Bartomeu said Pique is best center back in the world

In a major disappointment for most enlightened Barcelona's supporters, Pique has signed a new contract which will keep him at Barca until 2019, the delighted Barcelona president even labelled Pique as the best center back in the world which would leave a lot of people shocked at such an assessment. How can a player who is widely maligned for the numerous defensive error and problem in the Barcelona team which undermined their pursuits of glories in the past few seasons, can be considered to be the best? If the Barcelona hierarchy has such a yardstick for measuring defenders performance and abilities then how can Barcelona supporters trust them that they will get a defender who is suited for the task?

Alen Halilovic signs 5 year contract with Barca

Alen Halilovic, the teenage playmaker who joined Barcelona FC from Dinamo Zagreb for 2.2 millions euro has signed a 5 year contract with the club. He is going to start playing for Barcelona B first before being being played in the first team. With the Barca first team bench midfield play maker not making too much of an impact, it would be interesting to see the new Barcelona manager use him more in the first team to evaluate if he could make it in the first team in the first season itself since the incumbent playmaker isn't in good form and is not getting any younger.

Leo Messi signs new deal

Barcelona FC reported that Leo Messi has signed an improved contract at the Club Presidential Box today in the presence of the Club President Josep Maria Bartomeu and the player’s father as well as the sporting vice-president Jordi Mestre and the Club CEO, Antoni Rossich.

Luis Enrique is also confirmed to have sign a two years deal to be Barcelona new manager.

Luis Enrique signs two year deal as new FC Barcelona manager

Luis Enrique signs two year deal as new FC Barcelona manager. It is a good move by Barcelona and all supporters would want the board to give the new manager the freedom to buy the player he wants and sell the player he doesn't want, if that option isn't given then no matter how good a manager a person is, his hands would be tied. This move signals a move back to Barca's footballing philosophy and it shows in the just ended season, their attempt to develop a Plan B failed miserably as crossing the ball into the box with no one who could head the ball well. In the end, their Plan A also end up not being executed properly.

Barcelona want to buy Suarez?

Daily mail reported that Barcelona & Madrid are battling with each other for Liverpool's striker Luis Suarez in the summer transfer window with a transfer fee of around £100 million. I doubt Barcelona FC would be interested, there is no way they will cough up another 100m for a forward, when their back line is having a serious problems. This rumour is unlikely to be true in Barcelona case though as no people are this stupid to want to buy Suarez after all the defensive problems they are facing.

Barca to sell Pedro

Football direct news reported that Barcelona will welcome bids for winger Pedro this summer. The Spain international is wanted by Manchester United among other clubs, it would be a good decision to sell Pedro as he has come up short at crucial time.

Barca want Roma's Benetia

Gazzetta dello sport reported that Luis Enrique has put the central defender of Roma on the top of his list for Barcelona's defensive reinforcement this summer and Barcelona is prepared to offer $35m for the central defender
