Real Madrid Eyes Brazilian Talent as Scouts Monitor Striker’s Progress

Real Madrid, known for their keen interest in the Brazilian transfer market, is currently scouting the talents of 20-year-old Marcos Leonardo, who is making a name for himself at Santos. The young striker has already garnered attention for his goal-scoring prowess, accumulating 54 goals and 11 assists in 162 matches during his burgeoning career.

According to FT, Real Madrid faces competition for Leonardo’s signature, with Newcastle United, Sevilla, and Roma expressing interest. Santos has publicly acknowledged the possibility of Leonardo leaving in January, particularly if the club faces relegation, as they are currently just one point clear of the danger zone with five games remaining.

The player’s situation is complicated by the recent involvement of super agent Rafaela Pimienta in his affairs. If Santos can secure funds without urgency, a summer move may be more likely, with the potential cost of the transfer estimated to be in the range of €20-30 million.

However, with Real Madrid already securing the arrival of Endrick Felipe next summer, the likelihood of another forward acquisition may hinge on the development timeline for Endrick, potentially making a move for Marcos Leonardo less immediate unless a long-term strategy is in place.
