Reece James visited the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday and was scrutinised by the Real Madrid scouts. Chelsea's situation makes one think that some players will be on the move in the summer, but they will have to go big to get the full-back, as his club have priced him at €50 million.

Real Madrid are aware they need to strengthen the two full-back positions. Camavinga is ahead of Mendy in the pecking order and Carvajal doesn't have any competition on his level in case he gets injured. That's why Los Blancos' main target is Reece James for the right side of the defence.
The Englishman went to the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday for Chelsea's 2-0 defeat in the Champions League quarter-final first leg. The player was watched closely given his opponents' interest and the situation in London makes a possible departure in summer more likely.
The Blues are far off the Champions League spots and will need to sell important players after spending so much. One of them could be the England international, but having said that, he won't be cheap by any means, according to 'Marca'.
They reported that Stamford Bridge have valued him at €50 million. It's a high figure, but in line with his contract, which ends in June 2027.
