Spanish giants Real Madrid are believed to be set to make a €25million (£20million) offer for Ajax striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar.

Real manager Bernd Schuster is keen to bolster his frontline ahead of the new Primera Division season.

Holland international Huntelaar has been linked with a move away from Amsterdam ArenA, with a number of top European clubs, including Manchester United, reportedly interested in his services.

However, it appears that Real are set to attempt to land the 25-year-old after Schuster indicated to the club's hierarchy that he desires another striker in his setup.

Meanwhile, reports emanating from the Spanish press have suggested Chelsea target Robinho has been told he will not be leaving Bernabeu this summer.

It is claimed that Robinho would consider a transfer to Stamford Bridge but Real president Ramon Calderon has informed the Brazilian that the club have no intention of selling.
