Real Zaragoza move for Real Madrid defender Meija

Real Zaragoza are interested in Real Madrid defender Alvaro Meija.

The 25 year-old centre-half is being lined up by Zaragoza as a direct replacement for Gerard Pique, who is returning to Manchester United when his loan deal expires at the end of this season.

Meija has two years left on his Madrid contract, but is keen to move on after being frozen out this term.
