Fabio Capello is just days away from being confirmed as the new Real Madrid boss, chief Ramon Calderon has insisted.
Calderon did promise fans that he would bring the Juventus Coach to La Liga, for a second time, if he won the Presidential election and looks set to keep his word.
“I hope to officially unveil Capello in a couple of days,” stated Calderon. “He’s now in Turin to resolve his contractual situation with Juventus.
“He’ll be here on Tuesday at the earliest and Thursday at the latest to start work on forming a new team.”
Capello still has a year left to run on his Juventus contract and the Italian giants last week insisted they wanted him to remain.
However, whispers suggest that the Turin giants will not even receive any compensation from Real for their tactician.
It has been alleged that there is a special release clause in his deal which will allow him to walk away this summer.
Goalkeeper Gigi Buffon, another tipped to leave Juve before the start of next term, waved Don Fabio farewell.
“I don’t know whether it is the right move, but I wish him luck for the future,” he stated from the Italy camp last night.
Calderon has also promised to deliver Cesc Fabregas [Arsenal], Arjen Robben [Chelsea] and Milan ace Kaka.
However, the Rossoneri insist their Brazilian playmaker is going nowhere. “The Kaka situation is very clear,” stated director general Ariedo Braida.
“I’m tired of repeating the same things: Kaka is a Milan player and he won’t be moving from here. We wouldn’t accept any offer for the player.”
