In today's least shocking transfer news, Khedira has confirmed he's leaving Real Madrid at the end of the season. Hasn't said to which club.

 

I'd have him here starting over Colback. Not that it matters.

 

:lol: alright, alright.

Should've just retired. Surely he has enough money?

 

Exactly. Only play for one club, probably the best club in the world, and win everything possible at a club and international level. No need for anything else, that's about as perfect a career as you can get.

He is only 35. He might just enjoy playing football and the lifestyle that accompanies it. It will be all he has known for twenty years. There are obviously coaching positions and other decent paying jobs available with Barcelona and throughout the game in Spain if it was just about money. There is no reason to hang your boots because one club no longer finds you useful.

That's all fair enough. Just going to the Middle East isn't exactly for 'love of the game' reasons. He's getting paid a shit-load and strengthening the sketchy link between Barcelona and Qatar.

Xavi has obviously not been happy with the secondary role he's had this season; we are paying him more than what he's going to get in Qatar, so it's not just the money. He wants a fat contract AND to play 90' every week. He enjoys football too much, I just can't see him retiring yet.

 

It's also better for us if he goes; we need younger legs in midfield, as much of a legend as he is. All in all, his 750+ apps for Barça is a record that's not going to be broken for a while - if ever.

Tbf he maybe 35 but over the last year or so he plays like he's 45. For all intensive purposes he's done at the top level as sad as that is to admit.

Hope that's on purpose :lol:

I do appreciate a one-club player tbh.
