Alvaro Arbeloa targets four Real Madrid players for Fulham

Summary

Alvaro Arbeloa is set to become the new Fulham manager and aims to bring four players from Real Madrid to the Premier League club. As Real Madrid focuses on offloading talent following recent signings, Arbeloa has identified César Palacios, Manuel Ángel, Thiago Pitarch, and Jorge Cestero as potential recruits. These players were notable during the last season, with Pitarch making 16 appearances. The move aligns with Real Madrid's strategy of selling young talents while retaining buy-back options, potentially benefiting both clubs.
