Real Madrid to trump Seville, Barcelona for 15 year-old whiz

Real Madrid are set to trump Seville for 15 year-old whiz-kid Jose Maria Carrion.

Real Madrid are set to trump Seville for 15 year-old whiz-kid Jose Maria Carrion.

The striker has been described as a born-goalscorer, having struck over 80 goals last season in various junior competitions.

Carrion is the nephew of ex-Seville president Rafael Carrion and is currently playing for Atletico Libertad.

Real Madrid scout Jose Prado has written up a detailed dossier on Carrion and recommended they move for the teenager immediately.

Along with Seville, Barcelona, Villarreal and Atletico Madrid are also chasing the striker.

He came to the notice of Seville youth coach, Mariano Pulido, after scoring all four goals earlier this season in Libertad's 4-1 win over a Seville youth team.

Real Madrid want to sign Carrion and then loan him back to Libertad for the rest of the season. He will then join Real on a full-time basis in the summer.
