I heard Real doesn't count on him.
I wouldn't mind a loan deal at all. I'd prefer him over all those players, yes, even D'Agostino. I wouldn't want to splash 8mln on him, especially now when we don't know which formation are we going to use. A short term solution, like taking Guti on loan would be sweet.
But of course, that ONLY if we sell Tiago now.
