Also mentioned by La Razon is the fact that Chukwueze has a release clause of €80 million (£71 million) – it is said that Real Madrid are considering a joint offer for the attacker and his teammate, Pau Torres.

‘He’s the king, to me. He’s the perfect player. I watch so many YouTube clips of him, and there are so many things I can learn from watching him.’
