Real Madrid's failure to land Kepa Arrizabalaga from Athletic Bilbao may see them make a fresh approach for Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea, according to a report.
Spain international Kepa has officially agreed a new seven-and-a-half-year deal at San Mames, which contains a £70.5m release clause.
Madrid are now expected to give up hope of signing the 23-year-old, who was seen as a realistic target after being quoted mammoth prices for the likes of compatriot De Gea and Chelsea's Thibaut Courtois.
The Mirror suggests that Los Blancos are now watching developments regarding a new deal for De Gea closely, as they could be tempted to make another offer in the summer, three years after a deadline-day move was blocked by paperwork.
Speaking last week, the former Atletico Madrid stopper remained tight-lipped when probed on talk of a new contract being placed on the table.
