Real Madrid are among the leading European clubs interested in acquiring Inter’s Maicon, according to the player’s agent.

Antonio Caliendo told Italian television station Telelombardia his client is a wanted man.

“Yes, there is an interest from Real Madrid,” he said. “But they are not the only ones because Maicon is the number one in his position.”

The 27-year-old has made 40 official appearances for Inter this season and scored five goals – four in Serie A.

Inter coach Jose Mourinho will have to cope without Maicon for the league games against Udinese, Palermo and Juventus after he suffered a right thigh injury while on international duty with Brazil at the weekend.
