REAL MADRID SPIES MIDFIELDER LUCAS LIMA

While the main talk is in reference to next Saturday Super Liga game between Real Madrid & FC Barcelona, & whether the injured big names from both sides (Benzema, Ramos, Messi, Busquets etc) will make it, the other talk is the possible interest from Real Madrid for a Brazilian midfielder.

According to local Sports press Real Madrid sent over to the Brazil - Peru match scouts to spy on 25 year old Santos & Brazilian International midfielder Lucas Lima. The bad luck was that Lucas only played 2 mins of the match giving little time for the Real Madrid scouts to make a good report. 

If this story is true, I am sure that Lucas Lima has been followed for sometime - videos for example - & that the trip could have been more about conversations, with representative & the player to sound out future plans.

Considered a Brazilian Football pearl, the Santos player has an ownership package similar to Neymar before going over to FC Barcelona. The players rights are divided between various interests & this could complicate negotiations or sky rocket the transfer price. An initial market price has been placed at around 60M€ for a virtually unknown player except in Brazilian Football.

Stay tuned!
