Benzema, on renewal: "I'm at Real Madrid. Talking about renewal is another matter. I enjoy it, like any other player who can play for Madrid. We don't know what happens in football".
Benzema, on whether he kept himself out [for the World Cup]: "What can I tell you? I don't look at things like that. I know what I do. I know what Real Madrid represents for me, I'm never going to leave my club for anything. I was in Madrid and I was injured, I wanted to play like I always do, to help my team".

Sevilla are pushing Valencia to sign Januzaj on loan.
The Belgian is another of the options that Los Che are considering for the wing in a loan deal without paying his full fee, something that Sevilla are refusing to fulfill at the moment.
Kehl's ultimatum: "Moukoko can accept this offer - or we part ways" - Dortmund's sports director speaks plainly
We have made him a very attractive offer that gives him plenty of room for development. That should lead to a decision. He has to make that decision with his environment and his advisor.
Youssoufa can now accept this offer and commit to Borussia Dortmund - or our paths will part. I would like him to choose us because his development is not yet at an end and I see huge potential in him. But there are limits for us as a club. And we have shown these limits. Now it's up to him to make a commitment in a timely manner.
Youssoufa and his advisors know that we expect a decision this week, because we want to have the topic settled before the first matchday. So that the boy can also devote himself fully to the sporting challenges.

Full quotes:Pini Zahavi on Carrasco-Depay swap: "We are working on it, negotiations are ongoing." Deal between FC Barcelona and Atletico Madrid not done yet, he added.
We are talking. The plan is to swap Yannick for Depay. It's not concrete yet, I don't know if it can work, but negotiations are ongoing. Yannick likes it, he is a good player.
We told you that among the options that Atleti were considering was Vitinha, from Braga. If the negotiation with Barça is not unblocked, Vitinha on loan is an option that is gaining strength.
Memphis could arrive for free in the summer.
Carrasco did not accept the contractual improvement offered to him and wants to leave Atletico, if not to Barça, it will be to another club, but he wants to leave because he is angry with the club.
