TOP STORY: Real Madrid set sights on Jude Bellingham

Real Madrid is one of a number of clubs interested in the 19-year-old. Casemiro's imminent move to Manchester United is said to have led to the close of a deal for the England international.

Real Madrid handled their first match without Casemiro well and Luka Modric did what he always does.

The addition of Casemiro is needed by the side, who have suffered back-to-back defeats in their first two league games.

The deal between Real Madrid and Manchester United for the Brazilian will prevent Bellingham from moving to the English top flight. His transfer to the Santiago Bernabéu will be funded by the money.

According to reports, the manager was going to wait until next summer to make an offer for the player. If the Reds are to beat the Spanish side, they will have to move quickly.
