Royston Drenthe could be set for an exit from the Bernabeu, with Paris St. Germain said to be interested in signing him.

According to Le Parisien, PSG see the Dutchman as an ideal replacement for Jerome Rothen. Their preference is for a move during the January window, but they are willing to return with a summer bid.

Drenthe has only made five league appearances for Madrid this season. After initially winning the confidence of Manuel Pellegrini, he has since been replaced by Alvaro Arbeloa and Marcelo. His performance in the disastrous loss to Alcorcon appears to have sealed his fate at the club.

Since joining Los Merengues in 2007, Drenthe has made 43 league appearances for the club.
