Castilla starlets unsettled as Real Madrid push to buy back Benfica attacker Rodrigo Moreno

Benfica are likely to reject Real Madrid's opening offer for Rodrigo Moreno.

Real sold Rodrigo to Benfica 18 months ago for €6 million and are prepared to offer double to bring him back, says Sport.

However, with no buy-back option now existing, Benfica have referred Real to Rodrigo's new €30 million buyout clause.

News that Real are eager to re-sign Rodrigo has unsettled two of their Castilla prospects, Alvaro Morata and Juanlu, who had both hoped for a chance to prove themselves in the first team in 2012.
