Real Madrid been in contact with Serie A striker

 

Real Madrid have made contact with Genoa striker Krzysztof Piatek about a January move, claims Spanish outlet AS.

 

Piatek has been a revelation in Serie A this season and has drawn links with a number of clubs around Europe.

 

The Spanish side want to overhaul their offensive options after failing to replace Cristiano Ronaldo in the summer.

 

Karim Benzema has struggled to make up for the sheer number of goals Ronaldo scored for Madrid and now they are plotting reinforcements.

Genoa only spent a reported €4m fee to sign Piatek from Polish side Cracovia in the summer and now look set to make a huge profit on the 23-year-old.

 

Madrid have previously been linked with a move for Robert Lewandowski but could now move for his international team-mate.

 

Piatek has scored 13 goals in his first 19 Serie A matches, which is all the more impressive when you consider Genoa languish down in 14th. In fact, only Ronaldo has scored more (14).
