The Spanish giants are believed to be keen to find a new back-up for Marcelo and have also been linked with Wendell and Ricardo Rodriguez.
According to Tiempo Real, Madrid are keeping tabs on Layun, who joined Porto on loan with an option for the Portuguese club to buy him at the end of this season.
