Real Madrid won't forget Marseille's Pedretti

Real Madrid are considering Olympique Marseille midfielder Benoit Pedretti.

The French international is being lined up as an alternative to No1 January target, Everton ace Thomas Gravesen.

If Real can't find an agreement with Everton for the Dane they will turn to Pedretti, who can be signed from Marseille for £4 million.

Pedretti, 24, is aware of Real's interest and keen to see a move happen. However, everything will depend on Real's pursuit of Gravesen.
