      According to The Athletic, Real are among the clubs keeping tabs in the star striker after Ancelotti declared his interest during transfer showdown talks with the club’s hierarchy.
      The Italian tactician met with president Florentino Perez and general manager Jose Angel Sanchez on Thursday at Los Blancos’ Valdebebas training ground.
      That is when the ex-Chelsea boss asked for the England captain to reinforce his attack ahead of next season.
      The former Everton manager will need a new centre-forward if Karim Benzema ends his legendary 14-year stint at Santiago Bernabeu amid ongoing reports linking him with Al-Ittihad.

      Ancelotti remained coy, though, when addressing links with Kane recently.
      The 63-year-old head coach described the forward as a “top player” but insisted he wouldn’t discuss the topic further out of “respect” for Tottenham.
      Ancelotti said: “Harry Kane is a top player but we have to respect Tottenham, he’s a Tottenham player.
      “I can guarantee to you that Real Madrid will have a competitive team again next season”.

      The 29-year-old doesn’t appear keen to go abroad as he is only 48 goals away from surpassing Alan Shearer’s legendary Premier League record of 260.
      Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy, though, is not keen to sell his star player to a direct rival. More

      Real Madrid did manage to win the Copa del Rey, but will be aiming to compete for further honours next term by making statement acquisitions.
      The Spanish giants are set to complete a £130million deal for Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund next week.
      Bellingham, 19, handed out leaving gifts to his Dortmund team-mates this week ahead of the move.
      Madrid would also love to prise Harry Kane away from Tottenham, should Karim Benzema leave this summer.

      The Frenchman is reportedly on the verge of joining Saudi side Al-Ittihad on a staggering £342million contract.
      Kane, 29, has one year remaining on his Spurs deal, although he may be more likely to leave on a free transfer in 12 months than for a fee this summer.
      Real Madrid would also have to compete with Manchester United for Kane’s signature, should the England skipper decide to leave his boyhood club.
      Ancelotti’s men have also been linked with a surprise deal for Liverpool ace Andy Robertson.

      The Scotland captain could cost around £40m, with the Mail claiming that he is high on Madrid’s list.
      Should he sign for Los Blancos, Robertson could slot into a back four featuring Eder Militao, David Alaba and Dani Carvajal – with the likes of Antonio Rudiger in reserve.
      Thibaut Courtois is arguably the best goalkeeper in the world behind them – while Bellingham would join a star-studded midfield ahead.
      Madrid are expected to give veteran midfielder Luka Modric a further 12-month deal – and the Croatian could join Bellingham and Aurelien Tchouameni in a trio.
      Ancelotti will also have Fede Valverde, Eduardo Camavinga and Toni Kroos to call upon.
      Kane could then provide a focal point for silky wingers Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo to play off up top.

      He is set to be paid an eye-watering £342million over a two-year contract with Al Ittihad.

      However, the North London outfit faltered as it limped to an 8th-placed finish, missing out on European football for next season.
      Kane has been tipped for an exit from Spurs this summer and has previously been linked with a move to Los Blancos.
      Although an attempt to sign the England captain could prove to be tricky, as SunSport exclusively revealed, he wants to stay in the prem, but Benzema’s bombshell could see Madrid test his resolve.

      Ronaldo starred for the club over a nine-year stay with the club, during which he became its top-ever goalscorer.
      Currently playing his trade in Saudi Arabia with Al-Nassr, it is thought that he would be keen on a return to European football, and Madrid could become an option.
      Victor Osimhen

      The Napoli talisman is one of the hottest names in the market this summer after leading the Naples side to the Serie A title this season.
      Osimhen, 24, has been linked to a host of European giants this season, such as Manchester United, Chelsea, PSG and Bayern Munich.
      However, Madrid could push their way to the front of the queue to sign the 25-goal hitman, with Napoli believed to want £130m to let him leave.
      Marcus Rashford
      Madrid could tempt Manchester United into selling Marcus RashfordCredit: Getty
      Rashford, 25, has enjoyed his best-ever season at Manchester United, firing 30 goals in 55 appearances in all competitions.
      He could be added to Madrid’s existing Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo attack, giving the club a rapid-looking front three.
      A move to the Bernabeu could intrigue the Red Devils ace, and a deal might be possible as his contract is set to expire in 2024.
      A decent offer could tempt the Old Trafford outfit into a sale rather than lose him for free next summer, especially if they could beat rivals Barcelona to his signature, as they have been linked with a move.
      Erling Haaland

      The Norwegian superstar, 22, would definitely fit the El Galactico bill after netting 52 goals in 51 games for Manchester City in his debut campaign with the club.
      The Haaland has been a previous target for Madrid before he opted to move to the Premier League.
      Los Blancos have been tipped to make a world record bid for the former Borussia Dortmund striker in the summer of 2024, but could opt to bring their plans forward a year to seal a move sooner.
      Kylian Mbappe

      The 2018 French world cup winner, 24, has seemed destined for a move to Madrid and almost did in 2022 until he signed a mega contract with PSG.
      However, after a disappointing season in France, it is thought that Mbappe is considering quitting the club to fulfil his ambition of winning the Champions League.
      And with his deal in the French capital set to expire next summer, Madrid could once again try and convince PSG into a sale.
      Lautaro Martinez

      Martinez, 25, has enjoyed another fruitful campaign with Inter Milan as he has netted 21 goals in 37 Serie A appearances this season.
      He has also helped his club to the Champions League final, where they will face Manchester City.
      The Italian club are dealing with some financial issues and could be forced into a sale in order to rebuild the squad.
      Kai Havertz

      He has won the Champions League, FA Cup and Club World Cup with the Blues.
