Marca, the Spanish daily has reported that Real Madrid are in a race to join Anderlecht youngster Youri Tielemans. The player had been observed by Liverpool for quite some time and Jurgen Klopp too is said to be keen on the player since his days at Borussia Dortmund.

The 18 year old Belgian midfielder is in demand by several big European clubs. Real Madrid wants to sign the player in the summer as they could not sign Rodrigo Betancur and feels Tielemans will be an ideal signing for the Blancos.

Marca also says that Juventus and Atletico has already approached the player and the club to open a discussion, but the player wants to move out of Anderlecht when the time is right and does not want to rush it now. With these many clubs after the youngster it may be difficult for Liverpool to get a solid grip on the transfer but the presence of Jurgen Klopp in Liverpool may be a lucrative offer for the youngster if he wants to play under the German.
