Following his impressive breakthrough into senior football last season, Lennart Karl is a player being monitored by “every top club”, according to Bild's head of football, Christian Falk.
Real Madrid, in particular, have been mentioned as suitors for the 18-year-old, and Falk confirms that the Spanish La Liga giants indeed “have an eye on him”.
He adds that Real Madrid “may be trying to work out whether he’s going to sign a new contract or if there’s an opening to talk with the 18-year-old”, but stresses that there is nothing concrete between the two parties at the moment.
Karl, 18, is under contract with the German champions until the summer of 2029.
He caused a stir at the beginning of the year when he admitted that Real Madrid are his “dream club”.
