Marco Asensio could be included in an offer to tempt Eden Hazard away from Chelsea, with the forward consistently starting on the bench in La Liga.
Spanish outlet Diario Gol (h/t Jack Otway of the Daily Express) reported Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane is hesitant to include the winger in his first XI, forcing the Spain international to grow frustrated as a substitute.
Per Diario Gol, Zidane's future as coach will dictate what happens with Asensio, and he could be used as a makeweight to convince the Premier League champions to sell their best player.
Alvaro Morata recently exchanged life in the Spanish capital for a new adventure in west London, and he could form a devastating attack with his countryman if Hazard signs for Los Blancos.
Asensio remains one of Spain's premium young talents, and Madrid fans will not want to see another burgeoning superstar shown the door.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale continue to dominate the hearts and minds at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, and there is little room for developing forwards.
The 22-year-old has started only nine games in La Liga this season, rising from the bench on seven additional occasions.
The player has provided a disappointing total of four goals and three assists during the current campaign, with Madrid struggling to find the back of the net as a squad until recently.
