Real and Man City vying for Dutch full-back

Voetbal International has learned that both Real Madrid and Manchester City are hot on the trail of PSV Eindhoven hotshot Jetro Willems.

Both clubs had their scouts present as Feyenoord defeated the Eredivisie leaders at the weekend, making a check on the Netherlands international.

With Real Madrid widely expected to offload Fabio Coentrao and Manchester City likely to see one of Aleksandar Kolarov and Gael Clichy leave, it is hardly surprising they are keen on Jetro Willems.

Despite his fragile age, the 20-year-old already boasts plenty of first team experience, having made 98 Eredivisie appearances, while featuring in another 27 matches in European competitions.

Willems appears to be enjoying the most successful season of his career, having managed 2 goals and incredible 14 assists in 35 competitive outings.

After missing out on a place in the Netherlands World Cup squad, the youngster started the Euro 2016 qualifier against Latvia and has been called for matches with Turkey and Spain.
