Without shaking, Real Madrid secured their qualification for the Champions League semi-final against Chelsea (0-2) after winning the first leg by the same score. Los Blancos are now waiting for their opponent, which will be either Manchester City or Bayern Munich with a clear advantage taken by the Citizens ahead of tonight’s return match at the Allianz Arena. In the meantime, the public at Stamford Bridge was able to witness the new show of force of the reigning European champion, with in particular very special spectators.
Barca want Kanté and more
As revealed by Mundo Deportivo, Mateu Alemany and Jordi Cruyff were present in the London enclosure. Not obviously to attend the qualification of the Madrid rival but to supervise certain players of the Blues. They would also be three in number in the people of N’Golo Kanté, César Azpilicueta and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, the first being at the end of his contract this summer while the Gabonese could also try to free himself from his contract for reach Catalonia for free.
Finally, the Spaniard is a long-time target of Xavi and could change his tune, he who plays less this season. As for the Frenchman, a contract extension was still on track in recent weeks. But the sporting difficulties of the English club could reverse the situation. Kanté is no longer so sure of extending the adventure to London. A boon for Barça who wants to recover the free player.
