Published on December 9, 2019, Real Madrid's pursuit of Paul Pogba has reached a new level.
According to reports, Los Blancos are willing to part with James Rodriguez and Gareth Bale, two of their biggest players, plus a cash offer to tempt Manchester United into selling the French midfielder.
Real Madrid's manager, Zinedine Zidane, has been desperate to sign Pogba, his fellow countryman, and is now said to be ready to make a significant offer to make it happen.
However, Manchester United are reportedly seeking a massive sum of £150 million for Pogba, which could be a major hurdle in the negotiations.
It's worth noting that Pogba has been linked with a move away from Old Trafford before, with Juventus also reportedly interested in signing him.
But Real Madrid's offer of Rodriguez and Bale, plus cash, could be a tempting proposition for Manchester United, especially if they believe it would be best for Pogba to leave the club next summer to avoid continued distractions caused by his unhappiness.
