Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is moving for Borussia Dortmund striker Ousmane Dembele.

Independent of Cristiano Ronaldo's situation, Perez is in the market for a young striker signing and has joined the battle for Dembele.

Barcelona are also targeting the France international, with negotiations having accelerated over the past week.

However, Okdiario says contact between Real and Dembele's agents has been established and he's welcomed the approach.

Everything though will depend on Ronaldo's future. Dembele will only leave BVB if he can be certain of regular football - something both Real and Barca currently cannot guarantee.
