Geoffrey Kondogbia has conceded that it would be a "dream" if he was to join Real Madrid this summer.
The Sevilla midfielder has been linked with a host of European clubs in recent weeks, with Premier League outfit Arsenal believed to be among those that are interested in his services.
However, when discussing a potential transfer, the 20-year-old expressed his desire to link up with Los Blancos.
"My preference? Real Madrid has been my dream since I was a small boy," he told French television.
"It is always great to see that clubs are following you and want you. On the Real Madrid thing that would be a dream come true.
"But it is only a rumour at the moment. With that type of team, I could play regularly in the Champions League."
Kondogbia joined Sevilla from French club Lens last summer.
