Real Madrid chief scout Calafat convinced by Real Valladolid prospect Gui Ruck

Real Madrid chief scout Juni Calafat is tracking Real Valladolid prospect Gui Ruck.

AS says Ruck, who will turn 15 next April, works as an attacker and plays in the cadet B team of Valladolid.

Calafat's confidence in the young Brazilian transcends his current quality and situation, since Ruck is not among the most prominent players on his team. He was not last season nor is he at the moment, since he has had only three starts in eleven games (in which he has scored three goals).

Despite this, Real Madrid's chief scout rates him highly because of his ability on the ball and because of his technical quality, which leads him to think of the teen as an interesting option for the future.

Barcelona are also keeping tabs on the left-sided midfielder, who can be likened to Guti, but Real retain a significant edge. Ruck has family ties with Real defender Eder Militão, whom he has visited on more than one occasion in Madrid.
