Barcelona, Real Madrid target Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka

Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka is attracting interest from Barcelona and Real Madrid.

BILD says with his deal about to enter it's final year, Goretzka has so far resisted Bayern's attempts to secure him to new terms.

The Germany international is counting on rival interest from Barca and Real.

Indeed, both Spanish giants are prepared to move for Goretzka after the Euros, knowing his contract stand-off with Bayern could force the German giants to make him available.

Barca see Goretzka as a potential successor for Sergi Busquets, while Real need to freshen up a midfield which includes veteran pair Luka Modric and Toni Kroos.
