Real Madrid plot astonishing £250MILLION swoop for these Premier League stars
REAL MADRID are ready to embark on the biggest spending spree in football - because of a transfer ban.
Real Madrid are targetting five Premier League stars in their huge summer spending spree
Real and crosstown rivals Atletico were hit with a transfer embargo by FIFA yesterday over their recruitment of young players.
The bans prevent the two clubs signing new players this summer and in January 2017, although both are expected to appeal the decision.
And like with Barcelona in 2014, Real and Atletico will hope the Court of Arbitration for Sport temporarily suspend the bans and allow for a huge summer splurge.
