Newcastle, AC Milan watching Real Madrid prospect Aguado

Newcastle United are watching Real Madrid prospect Diego Aguado.

The defender can play at left-back and centre-half and is on the fringes of Real coach Alvaro Arbeloa's first team.

At 19, Aguado feels ready for the next step and could be on the move this summer.

AS says AC Milan, Parma and Newcastle are monitoring Aguado's situation.

Significantly, Aguado has just changed agents. He has joined Best of You, which also represents Casemiro, Hugo González, Alvaro Arbeloa and Jacobo Ramón.

This move comes at a crucial moment in his future, with the possibility of a promotion to the first team or a move in the style of Jacobo Ramón, who is now with Como in Serie A, though Real do retain a buy-back option in his deal.
