That's the conclusion from reports in Spain, where Real's returning boss Zinedine Zidane is thought to have added Pogba to a jaw-dropping wish-list.
Pogba's fellow World Cup winner Kylian Mbappe and Chelsea playmaker Eden Hazard remain the other men most wanted.
But Spurs' England skipper Harry Kane is another potential Galactico this summer as the third-placed La Liga club bid to revamp after a mediocre season.
And Spanish outlet Diario Sport suggest Raiola, who is also the agent of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Mario Balotelli, would make a mint from Pogga moving on.
The France midfielder, 26, admitted over the international week that playing for Real was his footballing dream.

Now Raiola is said to have told the Spanish giants "anything is possible" amid claims Pogba fancies a "change of scenery";.
United are thought to be keen on Pogba extending his contract as they build on the feel-good factor under new boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
And certainly Pogba has been one of the players most rejuvenated - seemingly unburdened - since the axing of Solskjaer's predecessor Jose Mourinho in December.
