Paul Pogba's days at Manchester United could be numbered, with the midfielder and his agent Mino Raiola looking for a route out of the club.
The Frenchman seems to have it clear in his mind that the ideal landing spot would be Real Madrid.
His problem is that those in charge at Manchester United aren't keen to let the player they paid 114 million euros for in 2016 leave.
As much as his time under Jose Mourinho wasn't such a success, the 26-year-old has greatly improved under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and is thriving now that he has Nemanja Matic covering him behind.
While Zinedine Zidane may want him in his squad, there are doubts at Real Madrid as well as the priority is to find a replacement - possible a gradual one - for Luka Modric.
It's also unclear how much he would cost Los Blancos if they wanted to try to sign him.
There is no release clause in his contract and he could command a record fee, having previously moved for 114m euros.
There aren't all that many comparisons for a player like him, but Barcelona have paid 75m euros - that could rise to 86m euros - for Frenkie de Jong, yet the young Dutchman is at a very different stage of his career.
