The season is about to finish and the Real Madrid board has to be ready for the summer transfer window. One of the names that has been brought up in the last three years is David de Gea. This year there will be no difference.

The Spanish goalkeeper was about to be signed by Real Madrid last September but the fax with the transfer information from Manchester arrived late and the transfer window was already closed.

According to some sources, the president Florentino Pérez has already an agreement with the goalkeeper and will try to sign him again this summer. Florentino’s idea clashes with Zidane’s intentions to keep Keylor Navas in the squad.

The Costa Rican born has been one of the key men for Los Blancos this season. He has shown his skills this season and he’s one of the most loved players for the supporters.

If Florentino finally brings De Gea, Los Blancos will have a problem with the goalie. Zidane wants Keylor Navas and Kiko Casilla to stay but De Gea could change everything.

Arsenal and Bayern Munich are interested in signing Real Madrid youngster Lucas Vazquez, Spanish website Fichajes.net has claimed.

The gunners are reportedly seeking for a man who can replace Theo Walcott, who has not performed as expected this season.

Vazquez has emerged as one of the most promising wingers in Europe, and Arsene Wenger could have requested Arsenal directors to attempt his signing this summer.

Bayern are also looking for a winger due to the injury problems that Frank Ribery and Arjen Robben are suffering. Carlo Ancelotti is very interested in the 24-year-old, and the Germans have plenty of money to seduce him.

However, Florentino Perez is not willing to let the youngster leave this summer. Vazquez has put in some superb performances in the past few weeks, and he has become a key player for Zinedine Zidane.

Vazquez has made 31 appearances for Los Blancos this season, scoring four goals and providing ten assists.
