  Real Madrid have completed the signing of Liverpool striker Michael Owen after he passed a medical, and he will be unveiled on Saturday. Owen has moved to the Bernabeau for a fee of £8m, with Antonio Nunez moving in the oppostie direction. Owen had just one season remaining on his contract at Anfield but after talks over a new deal stalled, Rafael Benitez admitted he would leave. But Patrick Vieira is to stay with Arsenal because his ties with the club were 'too strong to break'.
