Real Madrid are reportedly considering a summer bid for Liverpool centre-back Virgil van Dijk.
The Netherlands international has been key to his team's success since arriving from Southampton in January 2018 and finished second behind Lionel Messi in the most recent Ballon d'Or rankings.
According to reports in Spain, Los Blancos are weighing up an approach for the 28-year-old during this summer's transfer window.
Madrid would allegedly be prepared to pay as much as €180m (£151m) for the Dutchman, who has contributed four goals in 37 appearances for Jurgen Klopp's side during the 2019-20 campaign.
Van Dijk has played every Premier League match for the Reds this season, meanwhile, contributing four goals in addition to helping the team pick up 12 clean sheets in their 27 matches.
Zinedine Zidane's side could soon be looking for a replacement for long-serving captain Sergio Ramos, who will see his current deal at the Bernabeu expire in the summer of 2021.
