Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas offered to Real Madrid

Representatives of Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas have contacted Real Madrid about a potential switch to the Spanish capital, according to Sport. 

Cesc Fabregas was left on the bench by New Chelsea boss Antonio Conte for the club's Premier League opener against West Ham on Monday, with Nemanja Matic, Oscar and N'Golo Kante selected ahead of him. 

And despite growing up in Barcelona's famed La Masia academy and later returning to the Catalans at first-team level, he would consider a transfer to the club's arch-rivals should a bid arrive.
