Transfer Market Trio of starlets on their watchlist

It's no secret that Real Madrid are increasingly turning their attention to the up-and-coming generation of footballers to stock their squad with, and the Under-17 World Cup in India this month is providing Los Blancos with ample scouting opportunities.

On the watchlist are three players who can lead their team to glory; French striker Aminen Gouiri, Brazilian midfielder Alan, and Spanish winger Ferran Torres.

With a record breaking haul of eight goals from the European U17 Championship already in the bag, Lyon teenager Gouiri is already setting the sub-continent alight with four strikes for Group E leaders Les Bleus.

Real feel as if their strong relationship with the board at Lyon, as seen in the sale of Mariano to the Ligue 1 side in the summer, is a route forward to potentially signing Gouiri, who is rated in a similar bracket to Kylian Mbappe.

Next on the list is Alan, who currently plays his club football for Palmeiras in Brazil. As someone who has played alongside Vinicius Jr in the South American nation's U17 side, Madrid know the youngster well.

So well, in fact, that Alan's agent Juan Figer met with Real chiefs on a visit to Estadio Santiago Bernabeu during the spring as the Spanish giants gauged a deal.

Closer to home is the prospect of Torres, a winger at Valencia who is promised a shot at the first-team when he returns from India, where Spain qualified for the second round on Friday.

Los Che know they have a brilliant prospect on their hands and will likely hope to sort out a new contract for Torres, who is thought to have a release clause as low as 8 million euros on his current deal.
