Juventus in contact as Keylor already plans Real Madrid exit

Keylor Navas is ready to leave Real Madrid in January.

The Costa Rica goalkeeper was again on the bench for the 1-1 draw at Athletic Bilbao on Saturday and recognises he now faces playing second fiddle to Thibaut Courtois this season.

Keylor has no interest in being the Belgian's back-up, knowing his minders are already fielding offers from major clubs across Europe - including Juventus, says Don Balon.

He has already told Florentino Perez of his frustration and the president is prepared to listen to offers for him in January.

Should Keylor leave, Real coach Julen Lopetegui will promote Kiko Casilla to second-choice behind Courtois.
