The Madrid "Real" is ready to offer a new contract to Sami Khedira, who is being hunted by several European clubs.
The current contract of the German midfielder will expire in June, and the interest from other teams has increased as he has lost his place in the starting lineup to compatriot Toni Kroos.
Recently, Khedira has been most linked with "Manchester United" and London's "Arsenal," and the player will be able to start negotiations with other teams at the beginning of the new year.
However, during a press conference, the strategist of the "royal club" Carlo Ancelotti revealed that the management of "Real" would like to keep the 27-year-old player within their ranks.
"We still have time to renew his contract until June. I think the club is interested in reaching a new deal, but if we can't agree, the player will stay with us only until the end of the season," said the specialist from Italy.
Sami Khedira joined the UEFA Champions League winners in the summer of 2010, when he was acquired from "Stuttgart" for 19 million euros. Under the leadership of Jose Mourinho, the German was one of the main players in the heart of the team.
