Real Madrid are considering activating the buy-back clause inserted into the contract of Sergio Reguilon when he joined Tottenham in the summer of 2020.
The 24-year-old has started the campaign in good touch, and his form has earned him a recall to the Spain squad for the past two international breaks.
Reguilon was also a hero this past Sunday after telling referee Andre Marriner about a supporter who had collapsed during Spurs' game with Newcastle at St James' Park, encouraging him to stop the match so he could receive the best possible treatment.
The fan is now doing well and is recovering in hospital after suffering a cardiac arrest.
In terms of the Spaniard's future, there has been no previous suggestion that Real Madrid would entertain taking Reguilon back to the Bernabeu - although they did insist on including a buy-back clause in the £27m deal that took him to north London.
