Real Madrid to target former Barca midfielder in sensational move
Former Barca midfielder Cesc Fabregas has emerged as a shock target for Real Madrid, according to reports.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid manager Zidane did not play down rumours linking Fabregas to Los Blancos switch.
“If you want to put another central midfielder into the mix then it becomes complicated. Cesc is a great player but it is not very straightforward,” Zidane said post-match.

“I am going to end up with a squad where three or four players do not get selected.
“To, therefore, put another player in there makes it difficult.”
Zidane ruled out James’s exit and doesn’t think Real Madrid needs new player ahead of new season.
“James is here, I am happy with how he played and he will be staying here.
“I will always respond in the same way to that, I’m tired of having to give a response. My stance is not going to change.”
“Regardless of what happens, I hope to be here in a year’s time and I’ll say the same thing. I’m happy with the players I’ve got, these same players won the Champions League.
“What I want us to do is to work hard all year round, because you don’t just win things because you’re Real Madrid. You have to work and that’s all I want from the players.”
We are going to wait for the 31st. I don’t think we will be bringing players in.
“The squad is complete, but anything can happen. I am happy with the squad, with the players we have and that is that.”
“I’m happy with the players I’ve got these same players won the Champions League.
