Barcelona could use Rafinha as a bargaining chip with Tottenham Hotspur in a bid to land Christian Eriksen. Spurs are keen on the Brazilian midfielder, who spent last season on loan at Inter Milan. The Italians had an option to sign Rafinha permanently for €35m, but believe they can land the 25-year-old at a cheaper price. Spurs have made Rafinha a transfer target but the player has also been the subject of West Ham United transfer rumours. (Sport)
Zinedine Zidane is relaxed about his future after leaving Real Madrid and has no immediate plans to return to management. The Frenchman was at the French Open tennis final and spoke to journalists at the weekend. "I'm resting and I don't know what I'm going to do," he said. "What's important is the decision that I took. We will see what happens afterwards." Madrid are yet to appoint a replacement so far, and according to French network Radio Montecarlo, Andre Villa-Boas has emerged as another candidate for the role.

Real Madrid are weighing up whether to sign Thibaut Courtois from Chelsea or Jan Oblak from city rivals Atletico. The former would be a cheaper option, as Oblak has a €100m release clause. Courtois, who has one more year on his current Chelsea deal, is believed to favour a return to Spain for family reasons - and this summer could be the only chance for the Blues to cash in on him.
