Osasuna are favorite to land Real Madrid starlet

Takefusa Kubo is one of the big transfer goals at Real Madrid this summer - according to Spanish AS, Osasuna is the current favorite to secure the Japanese on loan.

Osasuna try to convince Madrid and Kubo by guaranteeing a leading role for 'Los Blancos' next season - the club ended up, despite being promoted, in a nice 10th place.

According to AS, the 19-year-old winger is betting on a LaLiga club, where the playing time is fixed and can result in up to 40 matches this season. Kubo also impressed on his loan at Mallorca despite their relegation to the second best tier.

Real Betis and Granada are also interested in Kubo, who came to Madrid last summer from FC Tokyo.
