Real Madrid star leaving club this summer

Real Madrid star defender Pepe has confirmed that he will be leaving the club after a decade this summer.

The veteran defender, 34, revealed he has offers from clubs in England while Paris Saint-Germain have been monitoring his situation for some time.

Talking to Spanish radio station Cope, “'I don't want to blame anyone. What Zidane has done with Real Madrid is spectacular, but there are things I don't understand.”

'I didn't say goodbye to Zidane because Zidane and Real Madrid knew I was going before I did.'

The Portuguese international has made 334 appearances since joining the club from Porto for £25.5million in 2007 but has fallen behind Raphael Varane and Nacho in the pecking order to partner club captain Sergio Ramos at the back.

'It is clear that I will not continue at Real Madrid,' he confirmed, with his contract set to expire this summer.
