Middlesbrough winger Adam Johnson admits he is flattered to be linked with a shock move to Real Madrid. The England under-21 international is reportedly a favourite of new Madrid boss Juande Ramos, who Johnson believes was interested in taking him to Tottenham while in charge at White Hart Lane last season.And Johnson has compared himself to current Madrid winger Arjen Robben.

"It is a great honour that Madrid have set their sights on me and I feel very flattered," he told Spanish newspaper AS.

"Last summer there was a lot of talk about me joining Tottenham and I know that Juande sent various scouts to see me in different games last season.

"Also I know that now he has gone to Madrid and that they are looking for wide players to sign in January."

He added: "I play like Robben. I like to dribble with the ball, to go for goal and to look for one-on-one situations."

So theres one player that Comolli couldn't get for Ramos
