Real Madrid are trying a new approach for Bayern Munich star Franck Ribery. Marca says Real president Florentino Perez accepts he doesn't have the cash available to convince Bayern to part with the Frenchman, so he is planning a new player swap offer.

Arjen Robben and Wesley Sneijder - plus a cash component - will be offered to Bayern for Ribery.

Bayern coach Louis van Gaal turned up the heat on the winger yesterday by warning Ribery he must fight for his place in this season's line-up.
