While nothing concrete has emerged yet, the player's name has reportedly featured in internal discussions about possible reinforcements ahead of the run-in. While Leeds, Barcelona and Man Utd have shown interest, Real Madrid currently lead the race - though the situation could evolve if a deal drags on.
