Thomas Muller

Real Madrid have put four Germany World Cup stars top of their wish list.

According  to Spanish papers Marca and Sport, the Bernabeu outfit are after Mesut Ozil , Sami Khedira , Bastian Schweinsteiger and Thomas Muller .

Sport says that Real Madrid President Florentino Perez is particularly "obsessed" with landing 20-year-old Muller from Bayern Munich.

The paper said that the president would first try to tie the right midfielder with a contract and then attempt to close the transaction with his club.

Ozil, a past IMScouting Player-to-Watch  and one of the young sensations in South Africa, has said that he is staying with his club, Werder Bremen.

However, with just a year left on his contract, the Bundesliga side could be tempted to cash in on their midfield maestro rather than risk losing him for nothing next season. Real Madrid will face some fierce competition for the 21-year-old though, with Arsenal and Barcelona said to be vying for his signature. 

Meanwhile, Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho has reportedly been monitoring Khedira for some time and the La Liga runners-up have already tabled an €8 million bid for the defensive midfielder. His club, Stuttgart , are said to be holding out for €15 million for the player whose contract is up in 2011.

And although Bayern Munich have declared Schweinsteiger not for sale, the attaching midfielder recently hinted at a move, saying that he was "not married" to the Bundesliga champions.

Schweinsteiger has two years left on his contract and has a €55 million buy-out clause.
