Real Madrid will be free to make Carlo Ancelotti their new manager if Paris St Germain can line up Laurent Blanc to replace him.
Marca reports that Blanc has met with Paris St Germain president Nassar Al-Khelaifi to talk about the possibility of taking over from the Italian.
The pair are reported to have spoken about a one-year contract and Blanc has expressed an interest in working with PSG’s Director of Football, Leonardo.
If Blanc agrees to become PSG’s next manager then Ancelotti will be free to take over at the Bernabeau.
Ancelotti is reportedly very keen to take over from Jose Mourinho at Madrid but PSG has been reluctant to let the Italian go, especially after such a successful season.
PSG won their first French title since 1994 and reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League, losing to a Messi inspired Barcelona.
Madrid are interested in the former Chelsea boss due to his experience in the Champions League.
The Italian has won the competition twice with AC Milan and Real Madrid are desperate to win the competition for the first time since 2002.
