Real Madrid are long-term admirers of the defender and are reportedly ready to reignite their interest this summer.   

According to fichajes, Inter Milan's financial problems could force them to sell some of their key players, and Real Madrid are hoping to take advantage of this situation and lure Bastoni to the Bernabeu.  

The LaLiga giants have reportedly decided against signing a new centre-back in January following the return of David Alaba from injury.
