Real Madrid have stepped up their interest in Real Mallorca starlet Marco Asensio.
Marca says Real and Villarreal look to have jumped ahead in the queue to sign one of the most highly rated prospects in Spain, a player Barcelona previously offered €2 million for.
The young winger's agent, Horacio Gaggioli, has met with Mallorca officials in the past week to discuss the situation.
It's understood Mallorca are prepared to eventually sell the youngster for a set price of €4 million.
Real Madrid have also held talks with Gaggioli to assure him of their interest.
