Six clubs have already come forward for Real Madrid striker Mariano Diaz.

After his hat-trick against Cultural Leonesa on Wednesday night, Real coach Zinedine Zidane encouraged Mariano to leave on-loan in January.

"It is true that perhaps he needs to look for minutes," said Zidane.

And AS says clubs are already in contact about taking Mariano off Real's hands.

Valencia, Leganes, Alaves, Malaga, Sevilla and Deportivo La Coruna are all seeking a deal with Real for Mariano.
