Real Valladolid are convinced they can sign Real Madrid dazzler Vinicius Junior on-loan.
Vinicius has been registered with Castilla this season and has already made his Segunda B debut.
Key to the deal will be former Galactico Ronaldo Nazario, who is in talks about buying into Valladolid.
While a deal won't be done this week, Ronaldo's plans to take charge of Valladolid could lead to former Flamengio whiz Vinicius making the move in January.
Vinicius joined Real Madrid this summer 18 months after Flamengo sold him to the Spanish giants for €45m.
