Manchester United are making a serious move for Chelsea's Bosman prospect Toni Rudiger.
Sky Deutschland says the Blues defender is out of contract next summer and currently stalling on signing a new deal.
Reports suggest the 28-year-old is leaning towards Real Madrid after holding 'positive talks' with the LaLiga giants.
But United are set to swoop for the Champions League-winner.
Chelsea are understood to have tabled a new deal worth around £140k a week to keep Rudiger at Stamford Bridge.
That appears to have fallen on deaf ears in the player's camp, with Real confident of landing their man.
Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain are also thought to be in the mix but the Germany international reckons Spain will be his next destination.
