Real Madrid want Lucas Moura

Lucas Moura has been on fire of late. He has scored two hattricks over the course of the past few weeks and was Pochettino's main man on the pitch as he schlepped Tottenham Hotspur past the finishing line in yet another exciting Champions League semi-final.

As is the norm these days, the former PSG man has already been identified as a target by none other than Real Madrid. That's right, Florentino Perez wants to sign Lucas Moura in the summer to bolster their attack in the wake of several impending departures with even Gareth Bale being extensively linked with an exit.

Tottenham Hotspur value the Brazilian forward at €85 million and if Zinedine Zidane will be granted the war-chest he has been reportedly promised, Tottenham Hotspur will do well to fend off the Blancos. Though Lucas largely plays as a false nine for Spurs, Real Madrid will want him to fill in on the right flank.
