Zinedine Zidane wasted no time in reorganizing the Real Madrid squad after taking defender Porto Eder Militao on Thursday.
Real will pay £ 43 million to the Portuguese side for Militao who will arrive in Bernabeu this summer on a six-year contract.
And Zidane, who made a sensational comeback as manager Real Monday, is now interested in strengthening its offensive ranks.
At the top of its list is Lyon star Nabil Fekir, who almost signed for Liverpool last summer before the collapse of the movement.
According to the Daily Record, Zidane has asked the club to give priority to the signing of the winner of the World Cup France, Fekir.
Fekir was wanted by the Reds last summer before Chelsea led the charge for his signing in January.
But there will be more than a year in Lyon at Ligue 1 at the end of this season, and if he does not reach an agreement, the French group will reluctantly sell it.
While Gareth Bale wrestles at Real, Fekir is perceived by Zidane as a potential substitute for Cristiano Ronaldo – the Portuguese superstar left for Juventus last summer.
Fekir nearly made a £ 53 million transfer from Ligue 1 club Lyon to Liverpool last summer after signing a five-year deal with the Anfield club.
But the transfer collapsed at the eleventh hour, when it had been claimed that the attacker's medical record had been complicated.
And now, it seems that the Reds will miss the young player of 25 years, while Real tries to catch up this summer.
