A report claims that Zinedine Zidane wants to sign a player from Liverpool and Manchester United as part of his overhaul of Real Madrid's ageing squad.

Newly-appointed Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane has reportedly set his sights on Sadio Mane and Paul Pogba as part of his huge rebuilding task at the Bernabeu.

The Frenchman's return to Madrid was confirmed on Monday, less than 10 months on from walking out on the club following their third Champions League success in as many years under his leadership.

Zidane is rumoured to have been talked into a return by president Florentino Perez, who promised the iconic midfielder a transfer kitty of £300m to overhaul Real's ageing squad.

Chelsea's Eden Hazard has already been strongly linked with a summer move to the Spanish capital, and El Chiringuito TV suggests that two other Premier League players may also be on their way to Madrid.

Liverpool forward Mane and Manchester United midfielder Pogba are both said to be highly-rated by Zidane, and Madrid hope that their manager's reputation - plus a huge sum of money - will help them complete the double swoop in time for next season.

Zidane's first match back in charge of Los Blancos is Saturday's visit of Celta Vigo in La Liga.
