David Silva On The List Of " Madrid Target"
Klaas-Jan Huntelaar might be on his way to the Spanish capital but Real Madrid are not stopping with just one signing. They have made it clear that they are also looking to bolster the right wing slot this winter.
The position has been a problem for Los Blancos for a while now and according to AS they have drawn up a shortlist of fifteen players from whom to make their selection.
The newspaper reports that Pedja Mijatovic and Miguel Ángel Portugal, two men high up in the boardroom at Real Madrid, have compiled the list and will be reviewing it over the next week.
Portugal is believed to have been scouting in Brazil and Argentina whilst Mijatovic has been following the European leagues for possible targets.
The main names that have been mentioned in the past are Ángel Di María and David Silva, both of whom are likely to cost in the €30 million region.
With Klaas-Jan Huntelaar already signed for €20 million AS believes that Real Madrid will be looking to spend less on a winger, probably ruling out both Silva and Di María.
More likely they will be looking to sign a player of the stature of Gonzalo Higuaín or Fernando Gago, both of whom were signed for under €20 million each by the club.
