PSG let door open for Gonçalo Ramos' exit
Champions League winners PSG would be ready to listen to offers for Portuguese international centre-forward Gonçalo Ramos (24), according to a report from . Ramos joined the French capital from formative club SL Benfica in a €65m move two years ago, on the back of Ramos' impressive cameos during the 2022 World Cup. Ramos' two seasons at PSG have been blighted by several spells on the sidelines. Besides, Ramos doesn't quite fit the profile that Luis Enrique expects from a center-forward. Still, Ramos managed to accrue a commendable return of 33 goals in 86 appearances for PSG. But his future with Les Parisiens is not guaranteed. PSG's technical staff lauds Ramos' day-to-day behaviour and the centre-forward is an appreciated member of the squad. Besides, Ramos has accepted he was a second-choice striker given Ousmane Dembélé's astonishing season. Les Parisiens have no intention of letting Ramos leave on a cheap, but they convey the idea that a deal could be done if an interesting bid finds its way to the negotiating table.

Official: Real Madrid defensive prospect signs for European giants
Following the sale of Victor Munoz to Osasuna, Real Madrid have now confirmed that another youngster, Rafel Obrador, has left the club to sign for SL Benfica.

Advertisement 'Real Madrid thanks him for his work and commitment during his time at Real Madrid, and wishes him and his family all the best in this new stage of his life.' Obrador, 21, joined Real Madrid in the summer of 2020 and enjoyed a steady rise through the academy ranks. The youngster impressed with Castilla before spending the last season on loan at Deportivo La Coruna, where he had a solid campaign. Having returned to the club, Obrador has now left Real Madrid permanently, joining SL Benfica – a move that is set to pave the way for Alvaro Carreras to join the Merengues from the Portuguese heavyweights. Advertisement As per reports, Real Madrid will receive a transfer fee of €5 million for the 21-year-old left-back from the Portuguese giants. In addition, the Spanish capital heavyweights will also retain a future buyback clause for their academy product.

Real Madrid top target refuses to talk about future
Real Madrid have done an exceptional job in the transfer market so far, notably bringing in the likes of Dean Huijsen, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Franco Mastantuono. However, one player that continues to elude them is Alvaro Carreras. The SL Benfica fullback was destined to join Real Madrid earlier in the summer, but his move has stalled recently. Advertisement Carreras is, in fact, still playing for Benfica in the ongoing FIFA Club World Cup, although Real Madrid have not given up in the chase. The Spanish giants still remain hopeful of completing the Carreras signing after the Club World Cup. Alvaro Carreras on his future In the midst of this Club World Cup campaign, Carreras was approached by MARCA editor Jose Felix Diaz, who asked him about his future. Carreras, though, remained coy about his future, refusing to openly acknowledge speculation about his future at SL Benfica. Alvaro Carreras remains a key target for Real Madrid this summer. (Photo by) Advertisement 'Now the important thing is the World Cup. Everything's fine,' he told Diaz. Carreras' statement suggests he is being cautious about talks regarding his future, especially knowing that Real Madrid must still find an agreement with SL Benfica, in order to facilitate his transfer. The Spaniard, for his part, though, is determined to join Real Madrid this summer and is, in fact, counting days for a move to the Santiago Bernabeu. However, with the Club World Cup not getting over until the second week of next month, Real Madrid will have to pay the waiting game, for now, as they look to secure their fourth signing of the new season. Real Madrid, though, are also attentive about other alternatives in the market, having been linked with a move for Alejandro Grimaldo lately.

Posa Returns For SL Benfica Match In Orlando
Press Release – Auckland City FC After a punishing 10-0 loss to Bayern Munich, the New Zealand side now face Portuguese powerhouse SL Benfica at Orlando's Inter&Co Stadium on June 20, in what could be a defining moment in Group C. Striker Myer Bevan, speaking after training in Chattanooga struck a tone of quiet determination: 'We've just got to move past that now and focus on the two games ahead.' The mood in camp is focused, not defeated. There's an understanding that while the odds are steep, the opportunity to compete on this stage is one they won't take for granted. SL Benfica, meanwhile, arrive in Orlando after a dramatic 2-2 draw with Boca Juniors. Their attacking quality is undeniable, Angel Di Maria, Nicolas Otamendi, and Vangelis Pavlidis bring UEFA Champions League pedigree. Bevan singled out Benfica's stars with admiration: 'Di Maria, obviously… and Otamendi – players like this have experienced the highest level for a very long time.' But he also hinted at a tactical opening: 'Maybe there's more space behind them… hopefully we can go at them as well as them coming at us.' Also bolstering the club's ranks is the return to the dugout of head coach Paul Posa who is back after a minor surgical procedure prevented him from travelling with the team on 2 June. The draw between SL Benfica and Boca Juniors means goal difference could be decisive, and the Navy Blues will be hoping they may find more room to operate if SL Benfica push forward aggressively. This isn't just about survival, it's about showing they belong. Auckland City FC know they're underdogs, but they've been here before. And in Orlando, under the Florida sun, they'll look to write a new chapter, one built on resilience, not reputation.
