Real Madrid or Barcelona to hijack Leroy Sane move?

Real Madrid have been dealt with a massive blow through Eden Hazard's injury-plagued debut season at the Santiago Bernabeu. Furthermore, Gareth Bale's situation at Real Madrid is constantly grabbing attention. The Welshman looks set to leave Real Madrid in the summer after a fallout with the fans and Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane as well.

To make transfer matters more interesting, Real Madrid's arch-rivals Barcelona are also keen admirers of Man City star Leroy Sane. With Antoine Griezmann failing to adapt to life at the Camp Nou and Ansu Fati still at a tender age, Barcelona will head into the transfer market in a bid to sign a player that can add width to their attack. Leroy Sane seems to be the perfect choice for Barcelona if the Catalonians plan to hijack a move for the 24-year-old as his pace and direct play would offer a different outlet on the flanks.
