Barcelona and Real Madrid have reportedly emerged as the frontrunners to sign Hoffenheim youngster Melayro Bogarde.
The 18-year-old has made three appearances for the German outfit this season, helping his side to clean sheets in their double-header against Slovan Liberec in the Europa League.
While the teenager is in line to earn more opportunities, the Dutchman has just seven months remaining on his contract.
As well as Barcelona, Aston Villa, Borussia Dortmund and Ajax have all been linked with a move for the prospect ahead of the January window.
However, according to Sport, it is Barca and Real Madrid who are regarded as Bogarde's most likely destination in the future.
Given the financial situations at Camp Nou and the Bernabeu, the Spanish giants see value in negotiating a cut-price deal as soon as possible.
