Real Madrid are reportedly looking to beat Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea to the capture of Fredy Guarin.
Inter Milan are thought to be willing to cash in on the Colombian international midfielder, who was linked with a move to the Premier League throughout the summer.
Spurs apparently offered Inter out-of-favour striker Roberto Soldado in a part-exchange bid that was rejected, and eventually switched their attention to Montpellier HSC's Benjamin Stambouli.
According to reports in Italy, Madrid are considering an approach for the 28-year-old in January as they look to add depth to their options in the centre of the park, following Xabi Alonso's move to Bayern Munich.
Guarin has three years left on his contract at the San Siro and is valued at around £12m.
