CNN —European soccer’s summer transfer window is in full swing, with several household names already moving to pastures new.
Karim Benzema – Real Madrid to Al-IttihadIn the first major coup of the summer for the Saudi Pro League, Karim Benzema has agreed to join Al-Ittihad once his contract expires with Real Madrid.
After a disappointing season, Real Madrid will be hopeful that Bellingham will be a star midfielder for years to come once the ageing Luka Modric and Toni Kroos depart.
The 32-year-old midfielder has signed a contract worth around £86 million ($109.8 million) a year, according to UK media.
Rice, who was in the youth ranks at Chelsea and then West Ham, was voted Conference League player of the season.
