Real Madrid defender Nacho has quickly been impressed by new signing Takefuso Kubo.

Having previously been at Barcelona's academy, the Japanese prospect's level of Spanish is very high and Nacho joked that the 18-year-old is even more fluent than the Spaniards in the squad.

"He speaks better than us, I'm telling you," Nacho said of the youngster.

This was put to Kubo, who remained modest.

"No, of course not," he said.
