It is a widely reported fact now that Real Madrid are making a desperate attempt to add another midfielder in their team and if recent reports are to be believed, their search might have finally come to an end.
After widespread rumours and reports of Manchester United’s Paul Pogba being the interest of Real Madrid, Madrid’s potential deal with Manchester United regarding Pogba seemed to have met a dead end.
After they failed to rope in Pogba, Florentino Perez, Zinedine Zidane and team shifted their transfer interest towards UEFA Champions League star Donny van de Beek of Ajax.
Latest tweet by journalist Marcelo Bechler now reveals that Madrid’s offered bid for Dutch player has been accepted by his club. The tweet also adds that the player has in fact said yes to the terms and conditions of Real Madrid and the deal could well be made official within the next few days.
No @marca e @diarioas sai o interesse do Real Madrid pelo holandês Van de Beek, do Ajax.
Pelo que apurei, a coisa vai mais longe: já existe uma proposta aceita pelo clube holandês e jogador. Van de Beek deve assinar por 5 ou 6 anos nos próximos dias. Negociação já existe há dias

Marcelo’s tweet in Portuguese loosely translates to “From what I’ve learned,
the thing goes further: there is already a proposal accepted by the
Dutch club and player. Van de Beek should sign for 5 or 6 years in the next
few days. Trading has been around for days” (Google Translate)
