Real Madrid are interested in Atalanta striker Rasmus Hojlund.

The Dane, 19, has been a revelation for La Dea this season - his first in Italy. Hojlund arrived last summer from Sturm Graz.

So far this season, Hojlund has scored five goals in 16 games.

Hojlund is now being scouted by Real Madrid as they view him as cover for Karim Benzema.

The youngster is viewed as a cut-price alternative to Manchester City star Erling Haaland.
