Real Madrid have identified Chelsea captain Reece James as a potential replacement for Dani Carvajal, according to Sport.
The La Liga giants have had Carvajal as their mainstay in their squad, but they are looking for a quality replacement next season.
The club have been keeping a close eye on James for some time and it is claimed that they could make an approach for him.
James has had an injury-plagued campaign with the Blues and he has not started in the Premier League since early August.
The Englishman picked up an unfortunate hamstring injury during the game and he only recently made his return to action.
The right-back will be hoping to make his first league start in almost three months when they face Spurs away from home.
Chelsea will go into the game as potential underdogs, considering Spurs’ impressive start to the current league campaign.
Tottenham started the gameweek top of the table and have the chance to reclaim the spot with a victory over the Blues.
