  "account": "Real Madrid is reportedly considering joining the competition to sign Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott, 23. The Spanish club has been closely monitoring the England player over the past weeks, as Chelsea leads the race for her services, with Liverpool and Arsenal also showing interest in the midfielder. Additionally, Real Madrid is interested in securing Turkish winger Kenan Yildiz, 21, from Juventus, but faces competition from Bayern Munich and Real Madrid for the player. Meanwhile, Real Betis has ruled out any interest in striker Troy Parrott, who is slated for a £85m release clause in his contract, and is reportedly set to return to Tottenham instead. A number of Premier League clubs are keeping an eye on Sevilla's defensive midfielder Lucien Agoume, 24, with his release clause sitting around £35m. In other transfer news, Manchester United and Arsenal are both scouting Nottingham Forest's Brazilian defender Murillo, though the 24-year-old will not be allowed to leave the City Ground in January.",
