Real Madrid have had a second offer for midfielder Lucas Silva turned down by Cruzeiro, according to reports.

Various news outlets in South America claim that a bid of in excess of €12 million has been rejected by President Gilvan Tavares, who is holding out for €15 million.

Real, who are also believed to be interested in Bayer Leverkusen-owned midfielder Christoph Kramer, face competition from Arsenal for Lucas Silva and although the player has spoken positively regarding a potential switch to the Spanish outfit, Tavares’ desire to get his price may force him to go elsewhere.
