No fewer than five members of the first-team ranks at La Liga giants Real Madrid have this week been linked with potential moves to Italy, with Juventus.
This comes amid the understanding that, amid their ongoing search for reinforcements with a view to next season, the Bianconeri have set their sights firmly on Spain’s capital.

The first member of José Mourinho’s squad tipped for a potential Turin switch comes in the form of the outbound Dani Ceballos. Also appreciated by those in the boardroom at Juve are the two Garcías, left-back Fran and striker Gonzalo.
A deal for the latter is considered unlikely, but both Ceballos and Fran are considered as being on the Bernabéu exit ramp.
Next up comes Franco Mastantuono, whose availability on loan for the season ahead has piqued the attentions of Luciano Spalletti and his Juventus staff.
The Old Lady’s chief target, though, comes in the form of Brahim Díaz, whose future appears to be somewhat in the balance despite the player’s eagerness to stay put.
