Borussia Dortmund believes Real Madrid are tracking Thomas Tuchel.

Dortmund hired Tuchel as their manager before the 15-16 season after Jurgen Klopp left the club.

“I have a good relationship with Real Madrid and I believe that they are tracking him. After the season Thomas had with us, Real have taken account of what a first class coach we have,” said Hans-Joachim Watzke.

Dortmund would like to extend Tuchel's contract.

“Thomas is still very young, and on the contrary to a player who’s 28 or 29, he could go to Real Madrid, for example, in the next 20 years.”
