Raul Albiol (25-years old) wants to leave Real Madrid. Albiol have expressed himself that he wants to have some time playing on the field, but with the signing of Raphael Varane, the chances of playing diminished, making him with half-foot out from the Bernabeu.

Real Madrid is willing to include him in the operation to sign Emmanuel Adebayor, moving to Manchester City  with his Valencian ex-teammate, David Silva. 

On summer 2009, Real Madrid bought Albiol for a fee of €15M, first Spanish player sign by Florentino Perez. He made 53 appearances in La Liga for the Merengues.
