Marcos Llorente considering his options with half of LaLiga Santander interested Transfer Market - Real Madrid He hasn't played enough

It doesn't appear as though Marcos Llorente's future is in white and the midfielder is enduring his second season with the first team without enjoying many minutes.

In fact, he has had just 22 opportunities and 1,164 minutes in a year and a half with the first team and, with him considering his options, half of LaLiga Santander's clubs are on high alert.

Despite Real Madrid suffering with injuries this season, Llorente has just 11 minutes under his belt and it is telling that only Jesus Vallejo has fewer.

The player himself doesn't want to make it two full seasons on the periphery and, with January approaching, he is considering his options and may follow in the footsteps of Theo Hernandez, Borja Mayoral, Achraf Hakimi and Raul de Tomas, who all went out on loan.

Llorente's fitness regime

Llorente is an attractive proposition for many LaLiga Santander teams and he has already shown his worth in the division with Alaves in 2016/17.

In that season he ended the season as the player with the most recoveries and helped his team to the Copa del Rey final, while also excelling with Spain at the Under-21s European Championship.

Sevilla are one of those interested following Maxime Gonalons' injury and there will be no shortage of rival suitors should he look to play his football elsewhere.
