#1 Sarabia and De Ligt

A target for Real

Pablo Sarabia is a Real Madrid academy graduate. Back in the day, he was among the highest-rated jewels in the academy alongside Dani Carvajal, Alvaro Morata and Jese Rodriguez.

However, his career stalled for a while before he finally picked up his game this season with Sevilla. As a result, according to AS, the Galacticos are keeping a close eye on the midfielder whose contract expires in the summer of 2020.

The plan is to wait on the situation of Modric and Isco and make a bid of €18 million to sign him.

Meanwhile, Matthijs De Ligt has snubbed Barcelona to open talks with Florentino Perez over a possible move to Real Madrid, report Don Balon. The Dutchman believes that he could get more playing time at Real while Ajax want €70 million for him.
