Real Madrid Announces New First Team Transfer
Spanish soccer giant Real Madrid announced a first team transfer through its official website and social media account on X at the turn of a new month. 'Real Madrid C. F. and Como 1907 have reached an agreement for the transfer of our player Jacobo Ramon,' a statement on the matter began. Madrid explained how Jacobo arrived at the club at the age of eight when he joined its La Fabrica academy. Since then, he became a regular fixture in youth teams before being promoted to the Castilla reserve outfit last season. A part of the U18 team that won the treble in 2022/2023, he made his debut with Carlo Ancelotti's first team in 2025, though unfortunately no major silverware was forthcoming in that campaign with the Italian now replaced by Xabi Alonso. For Spain's U19's, though, Ramon won the Euros in 2024, and he was thanked by Madrid for his 'commitment and dedication during the time he has belonged to Real Madrid', which wished 'him and his family all the best in this new stage of his life'. Madrid didn't give any details of the transfer in its correspondence. According to MARCA, though, Como has agreed to pay €2.5 million for 50% of his rights, with Madrid reserving the right to buy him back at the end of the next upcoming three seasons. We've been here before with Nico Paz, who Como, managed by FC Barcelona and Arsenal legend Cesc Fabregas, snapped up and took from the Spanish capital in similar circumstances last summer. As part of a $6.7 million (€6 million) agreement, Madrid also retained 50% of his rights of the Argentine midfield playmaker according to MARCA, and there have already been rumors that Los Blancos will bring him back to the Bernabeu. Doing this, and being a La Fabrica product that is sold elsewhere but then returns to Madrid after kicking on, is known as completing the 'Carvajal route', after legendary right back Dani Carvajal did it more than a decade ago via Bayer Leverkusen. It now remains to be seen who if either of them, follows his footsteps between Paz and Ramon. It was going to be difficult for Ramon to get minutes at Real Madrid With the likes of Dean Huijsen, Eder Militao, Antonio Rudiger and David Alaba in his way, it was always going to be hard for Ramon to get minutes at Real Madrid making a transfer a wise move for his development.

Raiders Already Done with Last Year's Big Free Agent Signing
During last year's free agency signing period, a lot of Minnesota Vikings fans. . .yours truly included. . .wanted the purple to go hard after defensive lineman Christian Wilkins to shore up the interior of the defensive line. Wilkins wound up signing a five-year, $110 million deal with the Las Vegas Raiders. Well. . .he's available again. In a move that can charitably be described as 'shocking,' the Raiders have terminated Wilkins' contract. Wilkins played just four and a half games for the Raiders in 2024 before suffering a foot injury that ended his season. Because of the way Wilkins treated that rehab, according to the Raiders, the team feels that they're justified in voiding just over $35 million worth of the guaranteed money that Wilkins is still owed. As one wise man once said, 'There will be lawyers.' Wilkins has already filed a grievance through the NFLPA. It's worth noting that when Brian Flores became the head coach of the Miami Dolphins in 2019, the first player the Dolphins drafted was. . .Christian Wilkins. I'm not saying that there's any chance he's going to find his way to Minnesota or that the Vikings are even going to pursue him. Just a little tidbit to keep in the back of your mind. Now, I'm not sure what sort of physical state Wilkins is in at this point, though it's worth noting that the Raiders did put him on the Physically Unable to Perform List when they started training camp. Of course, with the apparent acrimony between the team and the players, it's hard to tell just how far away from taking the field Wilkins might possibly be. The other important lesson to be learned here is that a team doesn't have to spend money in free agency just to spend it. As I said, I was disappointed when the Vikings didn't land Wilkins, but the Raiders backed an armored truck full of money up to his house. As it stands, the Raiders wound up paying Wilkins a shade over $29 million for what amounts to about 18 quarters of work. And if Wilkins is successful in his grievance against the Raiders, that number is going to go way up. Not a great return on investment.

Dolphins sign veteran OL, cut rookie QB Brett Gabbert
The Miami Dolphins signed veteran offensive lineman Daniel Brunskill on Tuesday and cut ties with undrafted rookie quarterback Brett Gabbert, the team announced. Brunskill, 31, spent the first seven seasons of his career with the Atlanta Falcons and San Francisco 49ers before spending the last two years with the Tennessee Titans. The versatile lineman has made starts at tackle, guard, and center during his career and started 24 games in his two seasons with Tennessee. In a corresponding roster move, the Dolphins moved utility offensive lineman Liam Eichenberg to the physically unable to perform (PUP) list. Earlier this year, the Dolphins allowed offensive linemen Isaiah Wynn and Robert Jones to reach free agency, and signed former Pittsburgh Steelers guard James Daniel to a three-year deal. Miami also selected lineman Jonah Savaiinaea in the second round of the 2025 NFL draft. Gabbert, the younger brother of former first-round draft pick Blaine Gabbert, signed with the Dolphins earlier this year after participating in the team's rookie minicamp on a tryout contract.
