Real Madrid has joined the likes of Paris Saint-Germain in the early interest of Argentine and Udinese midfielder Rodrigo De Paul, according to a report from Tuttosport (via Le10Sport).

PSG was recently linked with a possible move for De Paul, but there have been no reports of whether the French powerhouse has serious plans to pursue such a move anytime soon.

Real Madrid is currently dealing with multiple dilemmas within its midfield, such as the pending contract renewal of Luka Modric. But as with PSG, it is not yet clear whether Real Madrid’s reported interest in De Paul could blossom into a potential move over the upcoming summer transfer window.

Inter Milan is another club that has been in the rumor mill with De Paul. The report speculates over a potential swap deal that could involve Inter sending prospects Andrea Pinamonti and Lucien Agoume to Udinese for De Paul.

The Argentine midfielder has emerged as one of the more complete box-to-box midfielders in Serie A. De Paul has recorded 13 goal contributions in league play.

The Udinese talent will have three more seasons left on his contract following this season.
