Real Madrid want to sign a Barcelona sensation for free | OneFootball

La Liga leaders Real Madrid have set their sights on an audacious deal for a member of the academy ranks at arch rivals Barcelona.

That’s according to Fichajes, who highlight Ebrima Tunkara as the player in question.

Tunkara, for his part, is widely considered to be a star in the making behind the scenes in Catalunya’s capital.

Just 15 years of age, the Spanish youth international is an elite technical operator, boasting an eye for goal, stellar feet, and supreme athleticism.

Tunkara is capable of taking to the pitch in a number of positions, from central midfield to no.10 and on the wing.

The issue for Barcelona is that, as things stand, his contract is due to expire next summer.

As of yet, the Camp Nou brass have not managed to find an agreement on the terms of a renewal with the youngster’s entourage.

And eager to take advantage of this situation are those on the other side of the Clásico divide.

As per a report from Fichajes:

‘Real Madrid believe that Ebrima Tunkara fits into their idea of ​​strengthening the youth academy with young players capable of growing within the club, and therefore seriously considers his possible signing.’

Los Blancos, it is claimed, are preparing a contract proposal for Tunkara, in an effort to pry him away from Barcelona on a free transfer.
