Real Madrid are keen to sign a striker who can be the backup for Karim Benzema next season, as per Relevo.
Carlo Ancelotti has asked for another striker, and Florentino Perez & co believes Joselu fits that role.
The Spaniard is considered good enough to provide Benzema with competition and be a solid option from the bench.
Joselu has excelled in La Liga this season, scoring 15 goals in 31 matches and is the highest-scoring Spaniard in the league.
He already has good relations with members of the Real Madrid squad and is the brother-in-law of Dani Carvajal.
Los Blancos are yet to start talks over a potential move as they want the La Liga season to end before doing so and could get him for a discounted price if Espanyol are relegated.
