Madrid enter race for Piatek

According to Spanish television programme  'El Chiringuito de Jugones', 'Los Blancos' have added themselves to the list of suitors of the Genoa striker, who despite being 23 years old, many compare to Robert Lewandowski. 

His first games in Serie A were a great example of the treasure this player, that only a few months ago was totally unknown, has blossomed into for Genoa.  13 goals in eight games played for his club, there could not be a better form of recommendation letter.

The great goalscoring displays of Piatek so far this season, have caused an avalanche in the offices of the Italian club, which has been inundated with proposals from big clubs wanting to sign their star man.

The team is aware that, following this great run; Piatek will soon end up being poached by a larger outfit. But they know that, due to the current climate of the transfer market, they will get the right money for the striker when they do decide to sell. 

There are various big clubs vying for the polish ace. Two other teams from Spain, Barcelona chased Piatek this summer but were waved away, and Simeone's Atlético Madrid are also keen on signing the player.

In Italy, the interest stretches much further, with Serie A sides knowing that the signing of Piatek could be the difference in title races in future seasons; Juventus are highly interested, as are Roma and Napoli, the latter having made a formal approach earlier this week. 

In this situation, Real Madrid, or any other club, will not fight off their competitors very easily, as Piatek is currently the hottest striker on the planet. Meanhwhile, Genoa chiefs are sat back in their armchairs, shining their treasure, as he drives his price higher and higher with every passing game.
