5 Real Madrid Players Bound For The Premier League

1. Iker Casillas

When you are Spain's most-capped player, won a World Cup, European Championship, Champions League, La Liga and Copa del Rey titles what more is left to achieve in Iberia? So having done it all, Casillas found himself dropped by Mourinho, and Ancelotti then kept this loyal servant of Madrid on the bench when he took over. Simply put Casillas is too good a goalkeeper to be sat among the substitutes. His exile at Real €“ a club he has been at since childhood €“ could end before the year is out. Dropping subtle hints at a January exit from the Bernabeu has alerted Arsenal and Manchester City. Manuel Pellegrini has dropped Joe Hart at the Etihad following a number of high-profile errors. As for the Gunners, would Wenger want to change keeper with his side top of the Premier League? Goalies of Casillas's quality and vast experience are rare. He is still only 32, meaning there could be between six and eight years left in him. There is a possibility Casillas is disgruntled enough to turn his back on everything he has ever known and come to play in England. City would seem a logical destination as rangy Romanian custodian Costel Pantilimon looks merely like a stop gap measure. What Real Madrid players would like to see come to the Premier League? Have your say below.
