Galactico

With a World Cup to come next summer, even if Real captain Modric leaves Madrid after 13 years and 28 major trophies - he is their most decorated player - the Championship will not suddenly be graced by a Galactico.

But as photographers circled and film crews jostled at his Real Madrid unveiling, there was a sense the awkward kid in a stripey jumper was a teenage superstar struck by the galactico glare.

Does the UFC have a Galactico of their own in Topuria?

Having run down his contract at Paris St-Germain, the 25-year-old is poised to be confirmed as Real Madrid's newest galactico.

After years of underachievement at Champions League level with their 'galactico' model of signing superstar players, PSG are now going down a different path and are understood to be close to completing a deal for Benfica's Goncalo Ramos.
