Keylor Navas is Real Madrid’s current number one but he has been less than impressive this campaign.
The Costa Rican was at fault for at least one goal in the Champions League defeat to Juventus which almost knocked them out of the competition.
Zidane was heavily linked with a new shot-stopper in January but the Frenchman placed his trust in Navas.
Manchester United’s David de Gea and Thibaut Courtois, of Chelsea, are widely regarded as the two most likely to be signed by Los Blancos.

De Gea came close to signing for Real in 2015 but the deal broke down at the final hour because of a fault fax machine.
Meanwhile Courtois has already expressed his desire to move back to the Spanish capital to be closer to his two children.
The Belgian has also claimed he wants at least another season in west London - but if Real come knocking it may be too difficult an offer to turn down.
