Rumour Has It: Real plot move for Liverpool's Salah

Carlo Ancelotti has told Real Madrid president Florentino Perez he wants to sign Liverpool's Mohamed Salah, reports Fichajes.

The Italian believes Los Blancos needs another forward, with Salah seen as his back-up plan if they fail to land Paris Saint-Germain's Kylian Mbappe.

Madrid's financial situation is complicated, with the club not making any major signings in 2020-21 amid the fallout from the coronavirus pandemic, but they appear determined to land a major forward this off-season.
