PSG midfielder Verratti wanted at Real Madrid by Ancelotti

PSG midfielder Marco Verratti is emerging as a top summer target for Real Madrid.

France Football says Real coach Carlo Ancelotti wants a reunion with Verratti, who he took to PSG as coach two years ago.

Ancelotti has his doubts about Xabi Alonso and Asier Illarramendi for next season and would like to bring Verratti to Madrid to boost his midfield.

PSG are prepared to sell Verratti for €30 million, which would help fund a deal for Manchester City's Yaya Toure.
