With the signing of Jude Bellingham well on its way, Real Madrid are about to spend a lot of money, which is why they could turn their attention to Leeds United to bolster their squad further.

Yes, you read that correctly, as Cadena COPE are reporting on Wednesday that Rodrigo Moreno is now an ‘’option’ for the La Liga giants.

This is because the Spanish forward has a release clause in his Leeds contract that allows him to leave for as little as €3.5m following the club’s relegation to the Championship.

While Real Madrid will still pursue a big name to replace Karim Benzema, they are also looking to find a new body to take the spot of Mariano Diaz, who also left on a free.

Therefore, any arrival of the Leeds player would be on top of a star, such as Harry Kane, who has widely been reported as the favourite to follow in the footsteps of the World Cup winner.

The Spanish giants were looking at perhaps bringing in Joselu on loan, but the chance of signing Rodrigo Moreno from Elland Road could be too good to pass up.

Having ‘recovered the best version of himself’ at Leeds last season despite the club’s relegation, the €3.5m make him a very enticing prospect for a club trying to cut some costs if possible after the potential arrival of two big names.
