Japanese youngster Takefusa Kubo linked with Real Madrid return

The 19-year-old joined the

Yellow Submarine

for a one-season loan from

Los Blancos

toward the beginning of the current term. 

Nonetheless, he has attempted to consistently drive his way into Unai Emery's side as of late with only two

starts from 14 matches so far in 2020/21. 

As indicated by the Spanish reports, Emery is waiting for the winter's transfer window, looking to replace his injured half-back Vicente Iborra. 

That could mean bringing a non-eligible for European competitions player into the team for the second half of the season, with Kubo as of now possessing one of the team's assigned spots. 

Zidane has recently expressed his desires for Kubo to turn into a future star for Real Madrid, yet his first-team chances are probably going to be little if the Japanese international go back to the Santiago Bernabeu in 2021.
