Barcelona Braces for Potential Yamal Exit, Real Madrid Floats Gravenberch Trade
Barcelona is confronting uncertainty surrounding the future of teenage sensation Lamine Yamal, with reports suggesting the 16-year-old winger could seek a transfer to Paris Saint-Germain. Simultaneously, Real Madrid has reportedly proposed a player-plus-cash deal to Bayern Munich involving midfielder Ryan Gravenberch in exchange for Toni Kroos, whose contract expires this summer.
