Sevilla are chasing Almeria striker Alvaro Negredo.
The centre-forward is emerging as Sevilla's top attacking target for the summer market, though they cannot afford his £16 million buyout clause.
Real Madrid have a buy-back option on Negredo and can sign him in June for £5 million.
AS says Sevilla hope Real will re-sign the striker before making him available for a more affordable price.
