After the acquisition of Luka Jovic moving to the Bernabéu from Eintracht Frankfurt, playing time for the season ahead for Mariano Diaz with Real Madrid looks at being at a premium. According to Turkish daily Fanatik, the player's representatives have been in touch with Fenerbahçe with the striker moving to Istanbul on loan for a season being the deal brokered.

The forward moved to Olympique Lyon from Madrid in 2017 for a fee of 8 million euro, immediately making a mark with the French side bagging 21 goals and providing six assists for the Ligue 1 side. Last summer Real Madrid paid 21.5 euro million to bring the Dominican forward back to the Bernabéu but injury has hampered the player in making a mark with the side from the capital, finding the net just four times in 22 official games for the club.

The same outlet are also linking Tottenham's Fernando Llorente with a move to city rivals Galatasaray with the Pamplona born striker's contract expiring at the end of the current month.
