Wolfsburg is in talks to sign Borja Mayoral from Real Madrid but no agreement is in place, according to sporting director Klaus Allofs.

A report in Spain on Sunday claimed the 19-year-old has agreed to a one-year loan deal with the Bundesliga club, having become frustrated with a lack of opportunities under Zinedine Zidane.

Allofs has denied that any transfer has been completed, but confirmed that discussions over the "extraordinary" forward are ongoing.

"This is not a done deal," he told Kicker. "There are talks, yes. But you have to see this as being at a mid-point and you need to have perspective.

"Mayoral is a player who showed extraordinary performances in the Youth League and for Real's reserve team."

Borja made six appearances in LaLiga last season.
