Madrid's "Real" defender Sami Khedira is likely not to play in Spain next season.
The Spanish press reports that in the Champions League quarterfinals against the giants of "La Liga," Gelsenkirchen's "Schalke" took advantage of the opportunity to hold negotiations live, which ended successfully.
Most likely, Roberto Di Matteo's team will not have to pay millions for the German, as his contract with the "white" team expires next summer.
For a long time, there have been rumors in the press that S. Khedira is being eyed by London's "Arsenal," "Chelsea," and Munich's "Bayern," but the footballer has decided to play next season where he can do so regularly.
Currently, the defender, recovering from an injury, has played 16 matches this season, and there are fewer and fewer places in the starting lineup for the player.
S. Khedira arrived in Madrid from "Stuttgart" in 2010. During this period, he played 160 matches and won seven titles, including the trophies of the Spanish "Primera" and the Champions League.
