Canales talk is nuts - Racing

Canales only turns 19 next month but is already being linked with a number of clubs including Spanish giants Real Madrid and Barcelona and Premier League outfits Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal.[LNB]The youngster has made just 13 appearances in his two professional seasons at Racing but has burst into the spotlight with four goals in his last three starts.[LNB]That kind of form has seen Canales tipped as an outside bet for Spain's World Cup squad and also caught the eye of a number of clubs who are fully aware that his contract expires this summer.[LNB]However, there is a clause in place which would see Canales' deal automatically renewed for another year should he play 450 minutes this season and Pernia is confident of keeping him at El Sardinero.[LNB]"We have a commitment obtained with his father who is the person who represents the player's interests and I am fully confident in this," said the Racing chief.[LNB]"These stories have as much relation to the truth as an egg to a chestnut.[LNB]"I have never lost my calm nor am I going to. Nothing's happening here. Everyone's calm and no-one's getting nervous.[LNB]"There are always people who talk about matters and get in contact with other people to ask them about it."[LNB][LNB]
