Real Madrid are reportedly keen to sign Aston Villa centre-forward Nicklas Helenius.
The Danish international joined Villa for £1.5m from Aalborg BK earlier this summer, but that has not stopped the Spanish outfit from making contact with Villa regarding his availability, according to The People.
It is believed that while Madrid would initially sign the 22-year-old to lead their B side's attack, they see him as a player for the future.
The report added that Los Blancos would be prepared to part with £5m to capture the frontman.
Helenius was an unused substitute during Villa's 3-1 victory away at Arsenal yesterday afternoon.
