Nuri Sahin to join Real Madrid

Borussia Dortmund have called a press conference for Monday in which the Bundesliga champions will confirm the sale of Nuri Sahin to Real Madrid, according to a German report


Borussia Dortmund will confirm the sale of Nuri Sahin to Real Madrid on Monday, according to German source Ruhr Nachrichten.

The German-born Turkish international has a clause in his contract stipulating that he can leave Signal Iduna Park for €10 million if he moves outwith Germany.

The report states that Sahin, his agent Reza Fazeli and Die Borussian officials will announce the transfer of the player to the Bernabeu at a press conference at the start of next week.

The 22-year-old has been a standout player for the newly crowned Bundesliga champions this campaign, and has been linked with a move away from BVB all season.

Jurgen Klopp's side seem to have been resigned to losing their prize asset, and the purchase of Ilkay Gundogan from Nurnberg is identified as an act to replace the outgoing player.

Cristiano Ronaldo interview after Barcelona match Champions League 03 may 2011

"This was Mission Impossible IV," Ronaldo told reporters after the match.

“We knew that this was going to happen. We're used to living with these things. They took away our chance to reach the final in the first-leg at the Bernabeu. Here, no, here it was just the same thing.

"There are lots of things together. What happened at the Bernabeu, what happened today, these are things to think about. Barcelona have a great team but there's something behind it. It was hard to play with 10-men after our red card against Barcelona, and it was hard to play with the goal disallowed today.

"[Gerard] Pique touched me and I fell on to [Javier] Mascherano. He wasn't like this at Liverpool: he learned the cheats of Barcelona.

"The dressing room is extremely sad," Ronaldo added. "It's very difficult to play with these setbacks."
