According to Daily Mail, quoting the Spanish publication Marca, the La Liga giants are putting pressure on his agent Mino Raiola hoping the Italian ‘can apply pressure’ at Old Trafford to lure Pogba away.

Although Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane reportedly expects a ‘drawn-out saga’ to try to bring Pogba to the Bernabeu in the summer transfer window.

Ahead of France’s Euro 2020 qualifying win over Moldova last month, Pogba was quizzed on interest from Spain.

‘Like I’ve always said, Real Madrid is a dream for anyone. It’s one of the biggest clubs in the world,’ he said.

‘There is also Zidane as a coach and it’s a dream for anybody who likes football. For now, I’m at Manchester. We don’t know what the future holds. I’m at Manchester and I’m happy.’
