Raúl de Tomás could be Madrid's choice in the event of not being able to sign Erling Haaland, whose most likely destination would be Manchester City. The Espanyol striker has a termination clause for 70 million euros, but the club could accept 30 or 40 'kilos'
Although still there is not at all decided on the future of Erling Haaland, the one who is pretended by clubs like the Manchester City and the Real Madrid like the applicants with greater options, the whites contemplate the possibility that the Norwegian attacker finally do not land in the Spanish capital. Thus, the directive already would have some names of reservation in diary.
In accordance with 'ACE', one of them would be the one of Raúl of Tomás, the one who has turned into a vital piece for the Espanyol and has consolidated like one of the best attackers of LaLiga. His performance and his explosive rhythm have cost him the called of the seleccionador national, Luis Enrique, to include him in his last list of summoned for the commitments of 'the Red'.
Although 'RdT' has showed happy with the pericos and has left clear that still has a valid agreement with the Catalan team, does not have descartado the possibility of a change of airs in a near future, although perhaps it does not contemplate it for next summer: "I am happy here. They can happen one thousand things, but have agreement with the Espanyol and will have to be here the next year, obviously".
Other teams interested in Raúl of Tomás
It would not be the first time that other groups have showed had to do with the services. In fact, the Arsenal asked he in the past wintry market, but as in the rest of the cases, the londinenses finished receiving the refusal of the Espanyol, that wants to follow having his star or expect by a better offer in economic terms.
Besides, Raúl of Tomás keeps 'tied' to the pericos with a clause of rescission whose amount fixed is of 70 million euros, very similar to the one of Erling Haaland. However, from Barcelona could show something more flexible and accept an offer of 40 million euros to leave leave to the forward. Meanwhile, the Madrid would have the intention to go out of effective of attack like Mariano or Luka Jovic to facilitate the arrival of another player.
