Real Madrid Turn Down €10m For 19-Year-Old Who Hasn't Even Made First-Team Appearance

Chinese teenager Lin Liangming has yet to make a first-team appearance for Real Madrid, but that hasn't stopped Chinese Super League side Hebei China Fortune from making a bid for the highly-rated youngster.

With the likes of Ezequiel Lavezzi and Gervinho on their books, Hebei Fortune aren't afraid to get out the old cheque-book out when it comes to recruiting new talent and Liangming was subject of two bids from the Chinese side, €7million and €10million.

But Los Blancos rejected both offers for the 19-year-old, after signing him just a year earlier for €300,000.

The Chinese Super League will now appear on Sky Sports in the coming months after the company finalised a deal, running from March to November.

Sky have secured the rights for the next three seasons.
