Real Madrid are reportedly lining up a bid for Borussia Dortmund centre back Nico Schlotterbeck as part of their summer defensive overhaul plans.

The Spanish giants look set to lose Antonio Rudiger and David Alaba once their contract expire at the end of the season.

It’s been widely reported that Real Madrid are looking to enter the market for new signings to help improve their aging and injury-prone defence.

According to a report from AS, Real Madrid have landed on Dortmund defender Schlotterbeck, 26, and will make a €50 million in the summer.

Real Madrid aren’t the only side keen on the German, however. Arch-rivals Barcelona are keeping tabs, as are Premier League side Liverpool.
