Deportivo La Coruna are reportedly keen to secure the loan services of Real Madrid midfielder Lucas Silva.
The 22-year-old arrived at the Bernabeu from Cruziero in January, but he made just nine appearances in all competitions.
New head coach Rafael Benitez does not have a place in his squad for Silva this season, yet he is only prepared to let him depart on a temporary basis, according to AS.
The report adds that Deportivo are the favourites to sign the former Brazil Under-21 international, but Sevilla and Porto are also in the running.
It is believed that Silva will make the switch upon his return from Madrid's pre-season tour of Australia.
