Lucho on Real's
radar
Real Madrid are keeping tabs on Porto playmaker
Lucho Gonzalez, according to the player's
representative.
The 28-year-old was linked with Real's rivals Atletico Madrid
last summer but a move failed to materialise.
Lucho has continued to impress over the past 12 months and it
appears he could now be a target for Real.
Real boss Manuel Pellegrini worked with the Argentine during his
time in charge of River Plate and is known to be an admirer.
Lucas Comineli, who works for the company that represents Lucho,
claims there is also interest from France.
"Marseille and Real Madrid are interested in Lucho Gonzalez," he
told Jornal de Noticias. "However, neither have tabled any
offer."
Money would not be an issue for Real's returning president
Florentino Perez, who has already spent a vast amount this summer
and looks determined to continue making use of his chequebook.
Lucho, who joined Porto from River Plate in 2005, has pledged
his future to the Portuguese champions but it is believed an offer
from one of Europe's biggest leagues would be enough to turn his
head.
