Real Madrid are thinking about the future. Zinedine Zidane has 3 young defenders in mind for the next transfer window just incase Varane leaves. Curiously, all three are French. 'Los Blancos' are keeping an eye on William Saliba, Benoit Badiashile and Boubacar Kamara.

A few months ago there was speculation about Raphael Varane's possible exit. In case that happens, Zidane is already looking for a replacement, or at least that's what the 'Daily Mail' affirm.

According to the aforementioned source, up to 3 young players are wanted by Zidane. They are all French.

The 1st player on the list, according to the 'Daily Mail', is William Saliba. The defender signed for Arsenal in the summer and is currently doing well on loan at Saint-Étienne.

The Gunners paid around 29 million euros for Saliba. If Real Madrid want to sign him, they would, therefore, have to pay a higher fee.

But this isn't the only move that Zidane is weighing up. Benoit Badiashile of Monaco and Boubacar Kamara of Marseille are being closely followed by Zidane.

We will have to see if Zidane opts for any of these 3 Frenchmen in the end. Zidane is clear that he wants a CB 100% French.
