Real Madrid president Calderon throws cash at players to lift form

Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon is throwing cash at his players in a bid to lift performances.

Radio Marca says Calderon is offering £90,000-a-man for Real to win the next five games. The proposal was made at a dinner meeting with senior players, coach Bernd Schuster and directors Pedja Mijatovic, Jose Angel Sanchez, Miguel Angel Portugal, and Javier Lozano.

Real's next five games are against Recreativo Huelva, BATE Borisov, Getafe, Sevilla and Zenit St Petersburg.
