Gareth Bale still has three years left on his Real Madrid contract but has only appeared in two pre-season friendlies so far. He is part of the 20-man squad that are in the Italian capital this evening.
Manchester United had been linked to Bale earlier in the summer but nothing happened as the English Premier League transfer window closed on Thursday.
Clubs around the rest of Europe and the world can still agree a deal with Real Madrid between now and 31 August.
Real Madrid start their 2019-20 La Liga season away to Celta Vigo on Saturday 17 August.
