MADRID - Real Madrid are close to
agreeing the sale of striker Klaas Jan Huntelaar to Bundesliga
club VfB Stuttgart, Real sporting director Miguel Pardeza said
on Tuesday.
The Dutch international has become surplus to requirements
after Real's recent spending spree and did not travel with the
squad on their pre-season trip to Dublin on Monday.
"(We) are in very advanced talks with Stuttgart and the best
thing to do was to find a solution," Pardeza told Spanish radio.
"I think the player was aware of this and opted to stay in
Madrid to see if a final resolution can be found."
