Real Madrid have reportedly identified Athletic Club goalkeeper Unai Simon as a potential replacement for Thibaut Courtois.
Courtois established himself as number one following the summer departure of Keylor Navas, but continues to underwhelm in goal after a number of mistakes.
According to El Desmarque, Madrid scouts have already watched Simon on ‘several occasions’ this season with a view to signing him next summer.
The 22-year-old has usurped Iago Herrerin as first choice at San Mamés and is said to have a €50m release clause in his current deal.
Alphonse Areola – who was brought to Madrid as part of the Navas deal – will return to PSG at the end of the season.
Tottenham have also expressed an interest following the injury and decline of Hugo Lloris.
