Real Madrid 'forced to alter transfer plans'

Real Madrid will supposedly be forced to alter their transfer plans as a result of financial implications stemming from the coronavirus pandemic.

Zinedine Zidane's side have been linked with a host of big names throughout the past few months, namely Paul Pogba, Kylian Mbappe, Erling Braut Haaland and Eduardo Camavinga.

However, big-money moves are unlikely to materialise in the current economic climate, meaning that clubs will have to reassess transfer strategies ahead of the summer window.

According to Marca, Real's priority will be to offload several members of their 37-strong squad in order to balance the books.

Seventeen-year-old Camavinga is reportedly the number one target for Los Blancos, and the report claims that Zidane's side would have already sealed a deal for the midfielder if the COVID-19 outbreak did not occur.

Camavinga's potential arrival could spell trouble for current midfielder Casemiro, as contract talks with the Brazilian are said to have stalled in the wake of the pandemic.
