He told AS: "It is clear that it makes you happy to learn about interest of Madrid, but I cannot say much because whilst there is no agreement between both clubs, Chelsea does not let me speak.

"I know people want me and it would please me to send a message to the fans at Madrid - but I cannot until my future is solved. If everything is sealed, I will send that message.

"I do not know when this will be solved, it is a question for both clubs."
