Real Madrid to launch incredible double transfer swoop for Man Utd star Paul Pogba and Chelsea’s N’Golo Kante as Zidane forms his new Galacticos
REAL MADRID are reportedly set to launch an incredible double transfer swoop for Manchester United star Paul Pogba and Chelsea’s N’Golo Kante.
Zinedine Zidane has already raided the Blues for starman Eden Hazard in a deal worth up to £150million as he looks to form his new Galacticos.
And the Stamford Bridge outfit are now braced for a third raid from Madrid following Thibaut Courtois's £35m switch in 2018.
According to , both ex-Chelsea stars have already remarked privately to friends that Kante is the player Real are missing.
Madrid boss Zidane has been a long-term admirer of his compatriot and plans to make a serious effort to sign the 28-year-old at the end of the season.
SunSport reported yesterday that the Spanish giants made their interest in the midfielder known earlier this year and Chelsea have agreed to give them a heads-up if they are willing to sell.
The Athletic adds that Madrid are set to make a renewed effort to land Pogba next year, with the prospect of landing the World Cup-winning duo greatly appealing to Zidane.
The pair already proved their great understanding in midfield together for France, with Pogba leading the tributes for his international teammate last year.
The United star was desperate to realise his own dream move to Spain this summer, only for Old Trafford chiefs played hardball.
It is also reported that sportswear giants Adidas also played a major role in the ex-Juventus star not leaving during the transfer window.
But a January move has not been ruled out after Paul's brother Mathias revealed Pogba asked Barcelona star Lionel Messi about moving to Spain.
