Real Madrid are unlikely to sign Valencia's Rodrigo Moreno this summer after the club's board deemed the striker's €120m release clause too expensive.
However, according to AS, Los Blancos chiefs could sanction a move if the asking fee was lowered to €60m, with manager Julen Lopetegui reportedly keen on working with the 27-year-old.
The report claims signing Harry Kane, Edinson Cavani or Robert Lewandowski would be pretty much impossible at this stage in the summer, and Rodrigo has emerged as the standout candidate from a list of potential signings for Real.
The Champions League winners are yet to bring in a direct replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo, who left the Bernabeu for Juventus earlier this summer, but Vinicius Junior, Thibaut Courtois and Álvaro Odriozola have all been brought in.
