Real Madrid have reportedly been told that they would have to come up with an offer of £27m in order to sign RB Leipzig attacker Christopher Nkunku.
The 23-year-old has been in strong form for his German club during the 2020-21 campaign, contributing three goals and four assists in 16 appearances in all competitions.
According to Foot Mercato, Madrid have identified the former France Under-21s international as a transfer target, but Leipzig would not be prepared to discuss offers of under £27m.
The report claims that Zinedine Zidane's side are currently looking at a number of midfield options amid suggestions that Luka Modric could leave the Bernabeu on a free transfer this summer.
Nkunku, who has recently been on the sidelines with an ankle problem, largely operates as an attacking midfielder but has also been used as a left winger this term.
The Frenchman scored 11 times in 78 games for Paris Saint-Germain before arriving at the Red Bull Arena.
