Real Madrid are eyeing Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko for the summer market. Sport says Real coach Jose Mourinho is eyeing Dzeko as a replacement for Gonzalo Higuain, who will be sold at the end of the season. Mourinho has been seeking a centre-forward signing for the last two years at Real and Dzeko fits the bill.''

Dzeko is an impressive goalscorer who made his name in Germany during a rise to the top that has only seen him on the radar since 2007. Beginning his career in his homeland with FK Zeljeznicar Sarajevo as a midfielder, he moved on to Czech side Teplice where he boasted a decent goal return before being picked up by Wolfsburg for a fee of €4 million. Dzeko was an immediate star and led his side to fifth place in the table. But the following season his 26 goals in 29 games alongside the explosive Grafite, led the team to an incredible title win and he won the Bundesliga Players' Footballer of the Year award. Amid interest from Milan and Manchester City, the striker renewed his contract until 2013, but chose to move to Eastlands early in January 2011.''

Strengths: Powerful and strong, he has the talent to score from almost any situation and has great movement as well as physical prowess. Weaknesses: He has little experience of top level football and his temperament can be called into question. Career high: Dzeko became the highest scorer in the history of Wolfsburg with 59 goals in 96 appearances in August 2010, surpassing Diego Klimowicz who scored 57 goals in 149 games. Career low: Losing to Portugal in the 2010 World Cup play-offs. Style: Dominant, powerful, agile, a potent striker. Quotes: "Everybody says that England is the perfect league for me with my style." Edin Dzeko, January 2011.''
