Real Madrid & Atletico Poised to Do Battle for Nicolas Tagliafico as Arsenal Wait in the Wings

La Liga giants Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are set to compete with each other over the signing of Nicolas Tagliafico from Ajax, though Arsenal remain interested too.

The Argentinian left-back has impressed in the Champions League this season and played against Real Madrid in their recent 2-1 defeat in their round-of-16 first leg tie.

The 26-year-old even had a goal ruled out via the video assistant referee, which would have built on his impressive three goals in six Champions League group games - with the Eredivisie side making it to the knockout stages for the first time in over ten years.
