Real Madrid is interested in Bayer defender Jonathan Tah, who was previously linked with a move to Barcelona.

Tah was also linked with Bayern Munich. The 28-year-old defender, whose contract is expiring, could leave Leverkusen this summer as a free agent.
The possible appointment of Xabi Alonso as Real's coach could also influence this operation. Alonso played a crucial role in Tah's development at Leverkusen, and they have a good relationship.
Tah, who has been with Leverkusen since 2015, has become a club icon, making 380 appearances. He played an important role in Leverkusen's first championship.
