Real Madrid have made contact with Valencia defender Shkodran Mustafi, according to the player's agent, with Los Blancos quietly considering possible replacements for Sergio Ramos should the star defender make a surprise move away from the Bernabeu.
On Wednesday, Sid Lowe of the Guardian reported that Ramos told Real Madrid chief executive Jose Angel Sanchez he wants to leave the club, and on Saturday AS reported that Manchester United had made a bid of €60 million for Ramos—a player Real have given a €90 million price tag.
