TOP STORY: Real look to Kane and Davies
Real Madrid are assessing a number of potential signings for after the World Cup, and are keeping tabs on Harry Kane and Alphonso Davies, according to Sport.
Blancos boss Carlo Ancelotti looks to be continuing his search for a striker, with Tottenham Hotspur star Kane believed to fit the profile of the type of player who could be a future successor for Karim Benzema.
Spurs are reported to be looking for a fee in the region of €90 million to part ways with the England captain, an amount that the Santiago Bernabeu hierarchy are currently unprepared to offer. Should the 29-year-old make the switch to the Spain capital, there is belief that he would need to help push through the move by asking Spurs to lower their valuation.
The LaLiga champions are also keen to find a solution for the left flank, and Bayern Munich star Davies tops their shortlist. Davies, 22, scored in Canada‘s 4-1 defeat to Croatia on Sunday, impressing in a role that sees him deployed further forward for the national team.
Previously linked with Real Madrid as a replacement for Marcelo at left-back, it looks as though he has now re-surfaced as a future option to make an impact on Ancelotti’s forward line. Davies will enter the final two years of his deal at Bayern next summer, after signing a five-year extension in 2020.
