Zidane: Real Madrid Monitoring Raheem Sterling's Contract Talks
Zinedine Zidane confirmed that Real Madrid is monitoring the contract situation of Raheem Sterling with Liverpool.
"We know who Raheem Sterling is, and of course we are monitoring him as a player," Zidane said, according to the Daily Mail.
"There are very few players in the world who can improve the Real Madrid squad, so it is going to make sense we monitor the progress of the best young players in the world."
Sterling has said he will wait until the summer to sign a new contract with Liverpool, regardless of the offer.
Sterling has two years left on his current bargain deal at Anfield.
"We monitored Bale for over a year, the same with Isco and also Varane," said Zidane.
"We monitor many of the best young players in Europe, then if we feel they have something to offer Real Madrid we will contact their club and try and make the next step."
