WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The report further claims that club management have serious doubts about the 38-year-old's current fitness as he has not played a professional game since leaving Sevilla at the end of the 2023-24 season. As a result, the Spanish champions see this move as 'impossible' and will wait for January to make a new signing instead of bringing in a free agent at the moment.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p><em>AS</em> adds that Real are instead eyeing a move for Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr team-mate Laporte, a player they had considered signing over the summer. As of now, the former Manchester City star is the club's priority signing for the upcoming January transfer window.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Carlo Ancelotti's side will be back in action after the international break as they take on Leganes in La Liga on November 24, before meeting Premier League leaders Liverpool in the Champions League on November 27.</p>
