Castilla coach Raul unaware of imminent Madrid move for Reinier

Real Madrid great Raul, the club's Castilla head coach, claims to know nothing of a reported move for 17-year-old attacker Reinier Jesus.

Reinier has been linked with a €35 million move from Flamengo this month, and it is said the teenager will sign for Madrid after his 18th birthday on January 19.

Goal has learned that the two clubs have now agreed a price for the teenager, who is currently on international duty with Brazil's Under-23 side.
