Madrid Join Schweinsteiger Race
-
Real Madrid are set to hold direct talks with Bastian Schweinsteiger's agent about a possible move to the Bernabéu in the summer when his contract at Bayern Munich expires, but Predrag Mijatovic will not be involved.
The Spanish giants' technical secretary Miguel Ángel Portugal will fly to Germany instead of the sporting director after Los Merengues' midweek game in the Champions League to hold talks about a transfer, according to Kicker.
Juventus have also expressed an interest in the 24-year-old, but Madrid hope to steal a march on the Italians by laying out what would be on offer to Schweinsteiger early on.
Described by the paper as 'Ramón Calderón's right-hand man', Portugal has been given the responsibility of opening the negotiations while Mijatovic is left in Madrid.
Reports have suggested that the former Serbia & Montenegro international has been criticised for his hadling of delicate transfer talks and has been left out of the approach for Schweinsteiger.
Madrid are already planning for next term and want to ensure that they balance the squad after recognising that they spent too much time last summer trying to sign Cristiano Ronaldo.
Marca believe that an offer of €3 million-per year should be enough to attract Schweinsteiger to Spain, but that could rise given that the player will be avaialble on a free transfer.
