Real Madrid have re-signed striker Mariano from Lyon for €33 million, just 14 months after he joined the French club.

The La Liga club will reportedly pay just €22 million as they still own 35 per cent of the 25-year-old's rights, the BBC reports.

Mariano has signed a five-year contract at the Bernabeu after Real activated their buy-back option.

That was despite Sevilla having agreed a deal for the player, according to club president Jose Castro.

The former Dominican Republic international, who was born in Spain, joined Lyon in June 2017 for €8 million and scored 20 goals in 43 appearances.

He represents the only major attacking arrival at the Bernabeu since Cristiano Ronaldo’s departure last month.
