Manchester United expect Real Madrid to intensify their push for Paul Pogba once Gareth Bale leaves for China.
The Mirror says with Bale on the brink of a staggering 1million per week deal with Chinese Super League side Jiangsu Suning, Real are ready to ramp up their efforts to bring Pogba to the Bernabeu.
Reports in Spain suggest Madrid will have to find a whopping 150m to even tempt United to sell the 26-year-old, who still has three years left on his contract having rejoined the Reds in 2016 from Juventus in a United record 89m deal.
United are adamant they've placed no valuation on Pogba because they want to keep him and rebuild their team around him after last term's mid-season sacking of manager Jose Mourinho and sixth-placed finish to miss out on Champions League qualification.
But whatever their stance, it seems the La Liga heavyweights are now coming for Pogba with Zidane making no secret of his admiration for his countryman.
