Bombshell! Goodbye Barça, there's a surprise, Real Madrid offers €30M: Xabi Alonso has requested it

Xabi Alonso is making a series of much-needed adjustments to Real Madrid's squad. The Spaniard is making the decisions he believes will most benefit the team and, for now, it's working for him. Thanks to his methods, the white club has started the season in the best possible way and is already leading the LaLiga standings ahead of their eternal rival, Barça.

Meanwhile, the Catalans haven't started the season as well as could be desired, so Flick is already looking for solutions in the transfer market. Barça's coach is fully aware that Lewandowski's level has dropped in recent months, so he has spoken with Deco to sign a new striker. However, what no one expected was that Xabi Alonso could sabotage his plans.

Xabi Alonso sets his sights on the signing Flick wants for Barça

Xabi Alonso has realized that something isn't quite clicking in his forward line, which, despite having big names, isn't as lethal as it should be. Mbappé is putting in great performances and Mastantuono is performing at a high level, but Xabi believes there's still room for improvement. That's why he has requested the same signing that appeals to Flick's FC Barcelona.

We're talking about the big surprise of LaLiga, Etta Eyong, who keeps scoring goals for Levante UD. The Cameroonian, despite being valued at €20 million, has a release clause of €30 million. This figure has caught the attention of both Real Madrid and FC Barcelona.

Flick, knowing that Lewandowski's brilliant career is coming to an end, has asked FC Barcelona's board to sign Etta Eyong. However, unfortunately for the Catalans, Xabi Alonso's Real Madrid sees Etta Eyong as a market opportunity. If Vini leaves, Mbappé could return to the left wing, which would open up a spot for Etta Eyong in the center of the white attack.

Etta Eyong: FC Barcelona or Real Madrid

Etta Eyong has 5 goals and 3 assists in 8 matches, numbers that are very attractive for any well-resourced team. FC Barcelona has considered bringing him in, but Xabi Alonso has joined the race. Although everything depends on Levante's striker, Real Madrid could offer better terms.

In fact, in recent hours there has been talk that Real Madrid could pay the €30 million release clause. FC Barcelona, meanwhile, rejected Etta Eyong last summer after considering that paying €10 million for his services was excessive. Flick, seeing how well he's playing now and the emergence of the white team, is surely throwing his hands up in frustration.
