Real Madrid's staggering transfer budget revealed as all signs point to Galactico arriving with Erling Haaland linked | The Sun
REAL MADRID look set to move for both Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe as their whopping transfer budget has been revealed.
Real look ready to usher in another Galactico era following Jude Bellingham's record £115million move from Borussia Dortmund last summer.
And according to AS, Los Blancos are now looking to add Paris Saint-Germain's Mbappe as well as Manchester City's Haaland starting this coming summer.
The Spanish giants also have the funds to pull off such a sensational double swoop in the near future.
The Madrid outfit has £111million (€128m) in cash and £230m (€265m) in unused loans granted to attract both star forwards.
And Real's imminent move to the new Santiago Bernabeu, which is expected to take place next year around spring, "ensures" a set of "flashy signings" for Carlo Ancelotti's side.

However, the France international's contract runs out in June after he opted against triggering a player clause that would have seen his deal run until 2025.
But recent reports suggested Real's interest has cooled due to the 24-year-old's enormous salary demands.
Thus, Ancelotti's team has turned its focus on Haaland who continues to dominate the goalscoring charts in the Premier League with 17 goals and four assists in 18 appearances already under his name.
