Marcos Llorente could be forced out of the Bernabeu before the La Liga transfer window deadline slams shut on August 31.
The Real Madrid midfielder has struggled to force his way into new boss Julen Lopetegui’s plans and a move might suit all parties as the 23-year-old searches for regular first-team football.
According to AS, Espanyol, Alaves and Villarreal are all interested in the Los Blancos youth graduate.
Llorente’s connection with the Whites is deep-rooted given his father Paco and great uncle Francisco Gento were once wingers for the Spanish giants.
