Ajax have confirmed they have opened negotiations with Real Madrid over the potential sale of Klaas-Jan Huntelaar to the Spanish champions.

Real have been linked with the Netherlands international and Ajax skipper after losing compatriot Ruud van Nistelrooy to injury for the remainder of the season through injury.

The 25-year-old striker is now expected to move to the Santiago Bernabeu in a deal which could cost an increasingly struggling Real around £15million.

"Ajax are in talks with Real Madrid over the possible sale of Klaas Jan Huntelaar to the Spanish club," confirmed a club statement.

"However no deal has been agreed at the moment."
