Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has revealed his interest in Juventus ace Amauri after asking how much the striker would cost.

According to Il Corriere dello Sport, the Portuguese made contact with the Italian club's chiefs to register his interest in the Brazilian hitman, who impressed during pre-season training before netting a brace in his side's 2-0 win over Shamrock Rovers in the Europa League.

Despite the interest from Madrid, the Turin club have insisted they are relying on Amauri's services next season.

However, a mega offer, equivalent to the €22 million Juventus paid for the striker in 2008, could prove too tempting for the Old Lady.

Meanwhile, Amauri's focus is on scoring goals for his team.

"I am happy to have scored and I am working to reach my best form and score plenty," he told Tuttosport.

"It's important to stay fit, and take advantage from the assists I receive in matches."
