Although he has been linked with a move to Los Blancos for some time, new reports suggest that Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold has been made the Spanish giants' top target.
The England international, whose contract with the Reds is set to expire at the end of the current season, is believed to have turned down Liverpool's latest renewal offers.
The Merseyside club is making every effort to secure Alexander-Arnold's signature on a contract extension, but competition is fierce.
According to The Athletic, the 26-year-old is at the top of Real's shortlist, but any potential transfer hinges on whether or not he allows his deal at Anfield to run down.
While Alexander-Arnold remains the standout option for Los Blancos, he is not the only player on their radar. Tottenham Hotspur's Pedro Porro, Bayer Leverkusen's rising star Jeremie Frimpong and Sevilla's Juanlu are also being considered as alternatives.
As the season progresses, the Spanish champions will be closely monitoring Alexander-Arnold's situation as he will be free to negotiate with foreign clubs come January, making the next few months crucial for both Liverpool and Real.
