Transfer Market Real Madrid gauging the situation

Real Madrid right-back Danilo is subject of formal interest from both Juventus and Chelsea as the Italian and English champions look to reinforce their flanks.

Experiencing a season of ups and downs last time out, the Brazilian ended on a positive note but struggled to convince the fans who often dreaded his name entering the teamsheet.

In reply, Los Blancos are open to a deal so long as it tips 35 million euros and is desired by the player.

Danilo knows that, just as before, he will begin next season as second choice to Dani Carvajal on the right side of defence and that he needs game time to compete for a spot in Brazil's World Cup squad.

Another man further up in Zinedine Zidane's mind is Nacho Fernandez, who has often filled in at right-back and may prove enough for Real not to have to sign a replacement, while bringing through an academy product such as Achraf Hakimi to supplement the squad.

However Danilo's mind is far from made up and there is time for him to study the potential offers that Juve and Chelsea may put in front of him during the summer window.
