According to reports filtering through in the UK, Premier League side, Arsenal, are now angling for a move for the Costa Rican.
The Gunners are believed to have lodged a £14million offer to sign the shot-stopper as back-up at the Emirates.
Navas has lost his place between the sticks at the Santiago Bernabeu after the arrival of Belgian goal-keeper, Thibaut Courtois, who arrived from Chelsea.

The 32-year-old has not started a single match in the La Liga for Real Madrid since the second game of the season back in August.
He is therefore said to be desperate to play first-team football and Madrid are prepared to let him leave – especially with only 18 months left on his contract.
The UK Metro citing sources in Spain contend that Arsenal will now battle for the signature of Navas alongside Serie A giants, AS Roma.
Be that as it may, a move for Navas could leave room for curiosity at the Emirates, with Unai Emery having landed Bernd Leno in the summer and prioritised a new centre-back in January.
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously had reported that Real Madrid star Isco will not be joining Chelsea after the Blues surprisingly called off their chase following the Spaniard demand for extra money.
According to a UK Metro report citing Sun, Chelsea and Isco representatives had agreed a £75m deal including add-ons sending the deal to £100m, but the Los Blancos star suddenly demanded for more ‘cash’ after late interest from Paris Saint-Germain.
Isco now faces a tough spell at the Los Blancos as the Santiago dwellers were looking forward to cash in on a midfielder no longer in the club’s long-term plans.
