    Real Madrid have signed Boca Juniors midfielder Fernando Gago for £14m.

    Gago has been compared to former Real player Fernando Redondo



    Beckham, 31, has struggled to hold down a place in the Real team this season as coach Fabio Capello has attempted to overhaul the La Liga's aging squad.
    Gago has signed on a six-and-a-half year deal and follows River Plate striker Gonzalo Higuain, 19, in moving from South America to Spain.
    Higuain, who was born in France and raised in Argentina and is yet to commit his international career to either country, moved in a £9m deal.
    Their arrival follows the signing of Brazilian full-back Marcelo earlier in the season as a potential long-term replacement for Roberto Carlos.
    Gago, who has been dubbed his country's heir to former Real star Fernando Redondo, has been tipped to play in either central midfield or on the right flank.
    It heightens pressure on Beckham who has spent much of the first part of the Spanish season on the bench.
    While the former England captain did start Real's last match, a 3-0 defeat to Recreativo Huelva left them five points off top spot in third place. And Beckham has suffered further ignominy by being asked to play in a meaningless pre-Christmas friendly against Atletico Madrid while other big-name players have been excused early for the festive season. ​

    More young brazillian moved to real madrid theres always one every year and they are all over 9 million.​

    Your thoughts ?​

    Sounds like Beckham will be looking for the exit door.

    Peter Lawwell has been saying that Celtic want to sign players which boost the club's 'brand'

    hmmmmmmm........

    Agreed overkill. Please stay away Beckham. The last thing we need is Beckham's ego and all his bs sideshows coming along with him.

    He is a metro and a bit of a fairy but one thing I never see in Becham is an Ego player. He has listened to all the managers he has worked with, the only blip in his career regarding relations is when HE got smacked with a boot.

    To say Becham is a player that will come and shake up the dressing room is very naive, he is no Roy Keane.
