Real Madrid reportedly intend to raid Manchester City for one of their top stars after admitting defeat in their attempt to persuade Toni Kroos to stay at the club.
Kroos is rumoured to have informed Los Blancos that he wants out at the end of the season and Pep Guardiola's Man City is his ideal choice.
Don Balon reports that Real president Florentino Perez has given up on persuading the Germany international to snub a move to the Etihad Stadium, but they are already plotting their revenge.
The Spanish giants will attempt to snatch a 'galactico'-type player from the Citizens' ranks, with Leroy Sane, Sergio Aguero, Bernardo Silva and Kevin De Bruyne on their list of wanted stars.
However, the report indicates that Raheem Sterling is top of Zinedine Zidane's wishlist following his incredible campaign for club and country.
Sterling scored four goals during England's two matches over the international break, taking his tally to 25 goals and 12 assists in all competitions this term for the Three Lions and City.
