Real Madrid are interested in signing Bayern Munich midfielder Thiago Alcantara as they look to replace Mateo Kovacic, claims Sky Germany.
The Spanish international has been lined up for a switch to Los Blancos, with Julen Lopetegui’s midfield short of cover following Kovacic’s loan move to Chelsea.
The 27-year-old is likely to cost €50 million (Dh 209.7) as the Champions League winners bid to reach an agreement with Bayern for the former Barcelona star.
