Real Madrid chase Nemanja Matic
Real Madrid are looking into a deal for Chelsea midfielder Nemanja Matic. The Serbian's future is up in the air following the N'Golo Kante's arrival at Stamford Bridge.
Matic had a poor season last term as the Blues finished a lowly 10th in the league standings.
With Kante having arrived from Leicester City this summer, doubts have crept in over the 28-year-old's position with a host of clubs interested in his services.
According to The Star, Matic has emerged as a target for Zinedine Zidane, who is eager to freshen up his midfield this month.
Meanwhile, Real president Florentino Perez is said to favour a move for Newcastle United's Moussa Sissoko, and there could be a conflict of interest between the manager and the club.
Paul Pogba was the initial option for the European champions before they were swayed by Juventus' £100m valuation.
