The Brazilian playmaker is one of a number of potential options being considered by the Championship club as they look to add reinforcements to head coach Johannes Hoff Thorup’s squad.

Any potential deal could include an option to buy, although the exact terms are yet to be finalised.

Such a clause has never been included in a deal involving Reinier, with his previous spells at Borussia Dortmund, Girona and Frosinome all being straight loans.

Madrid would also offer to cover a significant portion of the 22-year-old’s wages in the event of a deal being agreed.

He completed pre-season with Real Madrid Castilla, the club’s reserve team that plays in Primera RFEF (the Spanish third tier) and the team’s head coach Raul is trying to convince Reinier to remain with the club this summer.
