MADRID (AP) – Real Madrid is about to add another Brazilian teenager to its squad.
After signing youngsters Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo in recent seasons, the Spanish club is close to bringing in 17-year-old Reinier from Brazilian club Flamengo. The transfer is expected to be completed in the coming days, according to Brazilian and Spanish media.
''Let's wait and see,'' Reinier said while training with Brazil's under-23 squad on Sunday.
The pending transfer has dominated the news about Real Madrid, which is in a tight race for the Spanish league title. Madrid won 3-0 at Getafe on Saturday to move level on points with Barcelona at the top of the standings at the halfway point.
