Iago Aspas, Celta Vigo striker, gave an interview for 'Radio Marca' in which he talked about his situation at Celta and was also asked about possible Real Madrid signings.

When questioned about his future, Aspas said he is "very comfortable" in Vigo and said he is not thinking about another team: "Right now I don't see myself in another jersey. I haven't about whether I would play in the Second Division with Celta because I don't think we'll go down".

He also spoke about the Spanish National Team, having missed the last call-up through injury: "I would like to come back. It's a shame not to have been on that list, but there are others who are playing very well. Now I have to keep scoring goals.

As for the possible Real Madrid signings ahead of the summer market, he said he does not see the arrival of two midfielders as suitable: Paul Pogba and N'Golo Kanté.

"Neither of the two. I like the midfielders they have now. The fact that they are not performing to their best right now is another matter," said Aspas.

In addition to discouraging their arrivals, Aspas offered better alternatives: "Of those I like most, I would sign Hazard or Mbappé. Hazard above all, because I think he is more affordable. In the center of the field they have Ceballos, an international who hasn't had the consistency he needs. For example, I like Thiago Alcantara better than Pogba and Kanté.
