Real Madrid are tracking Palmeiras teen Gabriel Veron.
The 15 year-old, says AS, is being scouted by Real this season.
Veron was outstanding for Palmeiras in the junior Club World Cup clash with Real, scoring in their 4-2 win.
Real are ready to open talks with Palmeiras about a pre-agreement for Veron, who cannot move to Europe until he turns 18.
Real signed former Flamengo whiz Vinicius Junior in a similar arrangement two years ago.
