Liverpool, Arsenal keeping tabs on Real Madrid forward

Premier League giants Liverpool and Arsenal are monitoring the situation of Real Madrid attacker Denis Cheryshev.

The Russian international had a great loan spell at Villareal last season, and this led to claims that he may be a regular at the Bernabeu.

However, the 24-year-old has had a reverse role with manager Rafael Benitez reluctant to offer him with a starting berth.

Spanish source Mundo Deportivo now claims that Los Blancos will not stand in the way of Cheryshev, should he decide to leave the club in the New Year.

It is also known that several Premier League clubs, including Arsenal and Liverpool are tracking the player's developments.

Cheryshev's current deal at Real expires in the summer of 2017.
