Real Madrid are making a new push to convince Bayern Munich to sell Franck Ribery. Marca says Ribery's agent, Alain Miglaccio, was travelling to Munich yesterday to open new talks with Bayern in an attempt to convince them to do business with Real. There's also talk that Zinedine Zidane will fly to Germany from the USA to help with negotiations.

The situation at Bayern is becoming increasingly difficult for Ribery, who is now being criticised by local media and fans over his ambitions to quit the club for Real.
