💸£100 million release clause: River smash the Argentine football record
It will be 100 million euros and will increase by 20 million more 10 days before the closing of the transfer book. This makes it a record. No player in Argentine football has a similar number to terminate their contract.

Without a doubt, Mastantuono's departure had a strong impact on River. Let's recall that the Millionaire wanted to retain him in the face of interest from Real Madrid, but they couldn't do anything when they executed the 45 million euro clause in his contract.
Now, this sets a precedent in Argentine football, where there is no longer a clause that can compete in the markets.

Crespo turns 50. Happy birthday to Hernan Crespo!
Refined technique, ice coolness in the area and a simply unparalleled flair for goal. Today, Hernán Crespo turns 50: he has played a huge part in Inter's history books and even today he remains in the heart of every Nerazzurri fan. Born on 5 July 1975 in Florida, near Buenos Aires, Crespo was nickname "Valdanito" for his technical and physical resemblance to Jorge Valdano. And just like Valdano, Hernán was an elegant forward, powerful in the box and incredibly good at finding the net at the right time. The Argentinian star lit up European football, and he had two important stages of his career with Inter. Advertisement He first spell in black and blue was back in 2002/03: he got 16 goals in 30 appearances and had a great Champions League campaign, throughout which he scored nine goals, leading Inter to the semi-final. A huge impact, and a season that left its trace. After going to Chelsea, Hernán came back to wear the Nerazzurri shirt in the summer of 2006. Three seasons, 87 games, 30 goals, back-to-back Scudettos and two Italian Supercups. It was an adventure full of success and unforgettable moments. His overall record for Inter speaks volumes: 117 appearances and 46 goals. The numbers of a great goal-scorer. And if you look at the modern Champions League, Crespo has a special place in Nerazzurri history: with 11 goals he is one of Inter's top scorers in the competition. The image of Crespo celebrating in front of the crowds with his arms up is still part of many fans' memories. Hernán was not just a great forward, but an important part of Inter history and all of the Nerazzurri family wish him all the very best!

Xabi Alonso gives insight on how he will improve Arda Guler and Aurelien Tchouameni's role
Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso has revealed how he intends to improve Arda Guler, as he adapts to a new role in the middle of midfield. The Turkish teenager has to a degree been handed the reins of the team with the ball at his feet, but there have been question marks over how he will respond without the ball. The 20-year-old has looked content, and performed well so far in the Club World Cup, securing a starting spot alongside Jude Bellingham and Fede Valverde in midfield. Alonso acknowledged that Guler might not have the physical capacity to battle with others for the ball defensively, but explained how he would be working with him to improve his work without possession. Advertisement 'Try to anticipate rather than be reactive. If the position is better, you get to the duel sooner and you don't have to beat them physically. We know Arda will make mistakes during this learning process, but he'll also do good thinks.' 'It's also a time to invest in a process, in Arda's development. He's doing well, and we keep pushing him. We want him gain experience, mature, and be able to make mistakes. Let him accept them because they're part of his development if we want to have a strong Arda in that area.' Image via Real Madrid CF Midfield debate at Real Madrid Whether Real Madrid need a specialist at the base of midfield is an ongoing debate both in the media and internally at the Santiago Bernabeu. Aurelien Tchouameni, one of the players that could play there, has been used in the back three though. Alonso explained that he had not earmarked Tchouameni for that role, but has stood out for ability to adapt. Advertisement 'I'd seen him a lot, but in the end, you have to get to know him. He has the ability to adapt; he's very intelligent when it comes to understanding concepts. His position is very important to me, so we can be strong in the middle.' Tchouameni can play 'hybrid' role One of the details that stood out against Juventus was Tchouameni's move forward in the second, closer to midfield. That allowed Los Blancos more control of the game, and Alonso was asked about what nuances he has been adding to the Frenchman's game. 'Time is very short. I think Aurelien can be a hybrid, one way at one stage and another way at another. That richness gives us more options.' Image via Getty Images / Goal Advertisement Flexibility is the name of the game for Alonso It is the second time that Alonso has expressly mentioned a tactical 'richness' that he seeks through certain players, or the ability to change shape. In his first press conference at the Bernabeu, Alonso also stated that he wanted his side to be flexible across games, and able to adapt to situations. That will be on show again as Los Blancos take on Borussia Dortmund in the Club World Cup quarter-final on Saturday night at 22:00 CEST.
