Real Madrid move for Chelsea, Inter Milan target Adriano

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is ready to join the race for Parma striker Adriano.

The Brazilian star has also been the subject of enquiries from Chelsea and is expected to leave Parma at the end of the season.

Adriano's registration is shared between Parma and Inter Milan, but his present club are under no obligation to sell him to Inter.

Real's technical staff have drawn up a detailed dossier on Adriano, who is regarded as the 'next big thing' in Brazilian football.

Real are also considering Santos youngsters Diego and Robinho.

Diego saw a £7 million move to Tottenham collapse in August, while Robinho has traveled to Italy this year to speak with interested Serie A clubs.
