Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti is reportedly desperate for his club to sign Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger on a free transfer this summer.
Rudiger's contract at Stamford Bridge is due to expire at the end of June, and as it stands, the Germany international will be leaving the European champions on a free.
Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus, Barcelona and Tottenham Hotspur are among those believed to be interested in signing the centre-back.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid also continue to be strongly linked with the 29-year-old, who has registered five goals and four assists in 47 appearances for Chelsea this season.
According to Marca, Los Blancos were initially put off by Rudiger's high wage demands, but the defender's agent has now lowered the amount required to sign him.
The report claims that Ancelotti told club president Florentino Perez in a meeting last week that he wanted the Chelsea centre-back to move to the club this summer.
Rudiger has scored 12 times and registered seven assists in 196 appearances for the Blues since arriving from Roma in 2017.
