Real Madrid are reportedly waiting for Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk to become a free agent, according to Wednesday's transfer gossip column from BBC Sport.
The report indicates Real Madrid are monitoring van Dijk's contract situation with a view to potentially signing him once he is available on a free transfer, though no formal approach or agreement has been reported at this stage.
Separately, the gossip roundup reports that Bayern Munich have offered winger Michael Olise a long-term contract extension, as the German club looks to secure one of its key attacking players for the coming years.
Bayern are also said to be showing interest in Barcelona defender Jules Kounde, according to the same report, as the club continues to explore reinforcements for its squad.
As is typical with transfer speculation of this kind, the reports remain unconfirmed by the clubs involved, and the situations described could change as contract talks and transfer windows progress.
Further concrete developments on any of these potential moves were not available at the time of publication.
