Real Madrid are reportedly interested in signing Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Marco Verratti this summer.
The 22-year-old has a close relationship with Los Blancos boss Carlo Ancelotti after playing under his fellow Italian in the French capital.
Ancelotti has maintained a strong interest in the midfielder and according to Marca, the Spanish side will make a big-money offer at the end of the season.
Verratti is a key figure at PSG, but it is understood that he would find it difficult to turn down the chance to link up with Ancelotti at the European champions.
