Real Madrid are reportedly in advanced talks to sign Paul Pogba from Manchester United this summer.
Pogba's future has been one of the hottest topics of discussion in recent transfer windows, but the Frenchman's desire to leave Old Trafford lessened following Jose Mourinho's departure in December.
However, a run of six defeats in eight matches has seen United eliminated from the Champions League and fall behind in the top-four race, with Pogba among the players criticised for his performances during that slump.
Madrid are understood to have held a long-standing interest in the World Cup winner, and Telefoot reports that they are in the advanced stages of bringing the France international to the Bernabeu as part of a major summer overhaul.
Barcelona, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain have all been linked with Pogba too, but Madrid are leading the race and plan to make a £130m offer in an attempt to convince United to sell.
The 26-year-old last month fuelled speculation that he could join Los Blancos by describing Madrid as a "dream club".
