Real Madrid will throw the kitchen sink at Ajax to sign Dutch midfielder Donny van de Beek, say The Mirror. They want £100m for the midfielder (112m euros), and Madrid may pay that.
Man United decided not to sign him last summer despite Ajax accepting a 40m euro bid. Madrid want to bolster their central midfield.
Zinedine Zidane ruled out the signing last summer for Madrid, hoping for Paul Pogba. The midfield is weak, with Modric and Kroos injured and Casemiro and Valverde now going to be overworked.
Madrid are still intereted in Tottenham's Christian Eriksen, who can walk away for free in June when his contract ends.
