Goalkeeper Bui Tien Dung officially joins the bottom team of V.League

Goalkeeper Bui Tien Dung has just announced his new destination after leaving Ho Chi Minh City Club last week.

Accordingly, tfanatic Bui Tien Dunghas officially become a rookie of the bottom team of V.League - Da Nang Club. This is a contract that is expected to "save" goalkeeper Bui Tien Dung after many months of being a reserve in V.League 2024/2025.

"Welcome Bui Tien Dung to SHB Da Nang! Goalkeeper Bui Tien Dung officially joins the SHB Da Nang family in the next phase of V.League 2024/25.

Da Nang Club has continuously fallen into the situation of goalkeeper injuries, even former goalkeeper Nguyen Thanh Binh reluctantly put on gloves again but broke his finger.

Real Madrid's transfer plans revealed

Real Madrid are prioritizing the signing of a right-back and a creative midfielder next summer.

On the right wing, Real Madrid identified Liverpool's Alexander-Arnold as their ideal target. The English player expressed his desire to play for the Spanish Royal team and rejected all offers to extend his contract from Liverpool.

If there are no surprises, Alexander-Arnold will join Real Madrid in the summer of 2025, completely solving the problem at right-back - where Lucas Vázquez (33 years old) is not a real specialist, and Carvajal (32 years old) is suffering from a serious injury.

However, the central midfield position is a more complicated problem. Real Madrid need a player who can coordinate the play, playing a similar role to Toni Kroos before.

Rumors from San Sebastian suggest that Zubimendi (25 years old) is a potential option. In addition, Vitinha (24 years old) is also in the sights. Although no name has yet stood out completely, the Club's Board of Directors has identified this as a position that needs to be prioritized for upgrading in the upcoming transfer window.

Although Real Madrid already have Fran García and Ferland Mendy at left-back, Alphonso Davies remains a long-term target for the club. The young Canadian is one of the best full-backs in the world and the fact that he has agreed to join Real Madrid suggests there is strong interest from the Spanish giants.

With a clearly planned strategy, Real Madrid aims to strengthen two key positions: right-back and central midfielder in the summer transfer window. These signings will help the team continue to maintain its dominance in all arenas and complete the squad to conquer major titles in the future./.
