Eintracht Frankfurt have expressed interest in Real Madrid striker Mariano Diaz.

Real coach Zinedine Zidane has encouraged Mariano to leave on-loan next month and the youngster has attracted interest from home and abroad.

Espanyol, Marseille and Nice have all been linked with the striker.

And AS says during this week's visit to Madrid, Eintracht chief Fredi Bobic also made an enquiry after Mariano.

The Germans already have Real defender Jesus Vallejo on a season-long loan.
