As per Fabrizio Romano, they are even ready to pay the release clause of Nico, i.e. 58 million Euros.<\/p>\n<p>Real Madrid have set their sights on Athletic Club winger, a player who was a top priority for arch-rivals FC Barcelona just a season ago.<\/p>\n<p>According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Los Blancos are now prepared to activate the 21-year-old\u2019s \u20ac58 million release clause in a bold move to strengthen their wing options.
