Ancelotti reportedly eyes Everton duo for Madrid
Ancelotti has his eye on a pair of players from former club Everton as he assembles his team in his return to Real Madrid.
The veteran manager would like to bring Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin to the Bernabeu, according to the Sun.
The report says he believes £50million would be enough to convince the Toffees to part with the England international.
Ancelotti is also contemplating a reunion with a man he brought to Goodison Park, with Sport reporting James Rodriguez is a possibility to return to Real Madrid.
Sevilla's Jules Kounde is also on Ancelotti's list, Marca reports, though the quoted €80m (£69m) asking price will be a concern.
