Real Madrid are yet to call about reported transfer target Alvaro Odriozola but Real Sociedad are open to talks, president Jokin Aperribay said.

Odriozola, 22, is reportedly a target for Madrid, who are said to be ready to make a €40million move for the full-back.

But Aperribay played down the speculation, saying Madrid were yet to make contact about the two-time Spain international, who is contracted until 2022.

"Up until now nobody has called and so we are not going to talk about hypothetical situations," he told a news conference on Wednesday.

"Real Madrid have not called us and so we will not talk about what has not happened and no-one has said will happen.

"If they call us then we will speak but they haven't called."

Also capable of playing as a winger, Odriozola is part of Spain's 23-man squad for the World Cup.
