Agent reveals Real Madrid, Barcelona want Man City defender Nicolas Otamendi

The agent of Manchester City defender Nicolas Otamendi has opened the door to a move to Real Madrid.

Otamendi was linked with Real last week.

"Pepe is leaving Real Madrid and Otamendi fits the profile they are looking for," he told Radio Continental.

"Jorge Mendes [Cristiano Ronaldo's agent] is also managing Otamendi in Europe."

In a separate interview, Sendoa also claimed that Barcelona have also been tracking the Argentine international.

"Barcelona have also followed him since he was at Valencia," he said per La Vanguardia.

"Nico is happy at Manchester City. But who wouldn't like to play at Real Madrid? It's the biggest club in the world."
