Paul Pogba has decided he wants to join Real Madrid if he is given the greenlight to leave Manchester United this summer, claims AS.
The France international has been heavily linked with a move away from United since the end of last season after feeling let down by his boyhood club.
Pogba does not feel United's ambition has matched his since returning to the club in 2016 and doesn't want to waste his peak years at a club unable to challenge for silverware.
A return to Juventus has been mooted but the message coming from Pogba's entourage is that he would actually prefer to join Madrid.
Zinedine Zidane is keen to bring Pogba to Madrid but president Florentino Perez does not share the same level of enthusiasm.
Perez, who has a frosty relationship with Mino Raiola, refused to match United's £150M valuation of Pogba last summer but the 27-year-old's reputation has diminished this season.
The 2018 World Cup winner has been limited to just seven Premier League appearances this season due to numerous ankle injuries and his stock has dropped substantially as a result.
Despite barely featuring for United this season, only Marcus Rashford (52) and Anthony Martial (50) have played a direct hand in more Premier League goals than Pogba (49) for the club since August 2016.
