Everton centre back Jarrad Branthwaite is on Real Madrid's radar ahead of a potential summer move.
The 21-year-old has had a stand-out season alongside James Tarkowski at the heart of Everton's defence and has played himself into the reckoning for Gareth Southgate's next England squad and earned a new contract that ties him to the club for another three years with the option of another year.
A number of Premier League and foreign sides have taken note, Manchester United and Tottenham in particular, but it is the interest of Real that will excite the young Cumbrian.
