Real Madrid have reportedly reached agreement with Porto for the summer transfer of Danilo.
According to Spanish television channel La Sexta, Los Blancos will pay €20m for the right-back, despite the Portuguese giants initially holding out for a figure closer to the player’s €50m release clause.
However, due to his contract expiring at the end of next season and his intention not to sign a renewal, Porto have conceded defeat in their attempts to bargain with the capital outfit.
Additionally, La Sexta claims O Dragoes have several urgent payments amounting to €25m and plan to cover them with the sale of Brazil international, who has long campaigned for a move to the Santiago Bernabeu.
Although it is not yet clear whether he will become Madrid’s first-choice right-back, given Dani Carvajal’s presence, Danilo fits the club’s transfer policy of signing players under 25.
