That's an unbelievable amount of money. Is Pepe really that good?
Wasn't he the one that Rooney "elbowed" in the friendly? Think he scored that cracking goal against us aswell.
 
When you look how much we paid for evra,vidic and Heinze you have to say perhaps they could have done better but I don't like them anyway so am not too bothered

Daylight robbery

Real Madrid have swooped to sign defender Pepe from Porto on a five-year deal.

The centre back, full name Kleper Laveran Lima Ferreira, becomes Real's first signing of the summer and the first since the arrival of new coach Bernd Schuster.

"Real Madrid and Porto have reached an agreement for the transfer of defender Kleper Laveran Lima Ferreira, 'Pepe'," read a statement on Real's official website.

"The player has signed a five-year contract and will join up with Real's squad immediately."

Reports in Portugal suggest Real have parted with €28 million (£19 million) to land the Brazilian-born stopper who helped Porto to the Portuguese title last term.

The signing of the 24-year-old would appear to have ended Real's interest in Romanian defender Cristian Chivu whom the Spanish champions had been chasing for some weeks.

Meanwhile, Julio Baptista insists he expects to start next season with Los Merengues despite being farmed out on loan to Arsenal last term.

'The Beast' is currently on Copa America duty with Brazil but is looking forward to returning to Spain and believes he still has a future at the Santiago Bernabeu.

"When the Copa finishes I will return to Real Madrid, the club with whom I have a contract and with whom I will undertake pre-season," he stated.

"The most important thing is that I return to the club who signed me.

"What's more, Spain is a place I like living and I will give everything to be able to play there again."

Always laugh when I see him been describes as the Beast considering he was afraid of rain and all:lol:
 
im sure if the Real board read these posts they will be gutted to realise they have been conned:rolleyes:
 
Good signing for real, quite expensive at 20 million tho.

Can some one tell me have they signed Metzelder as well or is he too injuried?
 
More Real news.

Bernd Schuster has confirmed that Real Madrid have completed the signing of Javier Saviola on a free transfer after he was released by Barcelona.

The German coach told Punto Radio that a deal had been completed for the Argentinian striker on June 30, but that he was only stating it now he was coach at the Bernabeu.

"He is young, can score goals and can give us a lot more," Schuster said.

Saviola's desire to prove a point to Barca is something that his new trainer is looking forward to seeing.

"These are small details that are also good for us. The fans and the media reacted well when the news came out."

Christoph Metzelder - who passed his Real medical on Tuesday and will be officially presented on Wednesday - and Pepe have already signed for Madrid to bolster the defence, but Saviola is the first attacking player to arrive under Schuster.

The 25-year-old striker had stated earlier this season that he would never join Madrid and was keen to pen a new deal at Camp Nou.

However, as his options of first-team action became less and less under Frank Rijkaard, the possibility of following in Luis Figo's footsteps became more attractive.

Saviola joined Barcelona in 2001 and enjoyed three successful seasons, before the Catalan club signed Samuel Eto'o.

Loan spells at Monaco and Sevilla followed, before he opted not to spend a third year at a different club and stayed at Barca last summer.

Despite a serious injury to Samuel Eto'o last October, Saviola still found his chances limited and when he was offered a reduced contract to stay, Saviola stated that his days at Camp Nou were numbered.
 
Where's Real old Manager fecked off to now though, out of interest?

BTW, Anderson cost us 31.5m euros if you add the 6m euros paid to his agency Gestifute who owned 20% of him.

If he flops there'll be mass suicide by all the members of the "we love anderson" club and mass excstacy by the scousers and the rentboys. He hasn't even played alot of games for porto and even if it's in installments it seems a bit on the hefty side:nervous:

No he doesnt, He has added Pepe, Saviola is almoust sure, Probably Robben is on his way, Metzelder had an agreement before last season ended and they are going for Cesc Fabregas too.

If barca think they got the league in the bag they will find it very hard.
Im not fan of La Liga but next season will be a good one to watch.
 
Just read his contract expires this summer. Any chance Mourinho pull off another free? I think it will be a good deal.

I figured it's not worthy starting a new thread over such discussion.
