Real Madrid are reportedly continuing to monitoring the situation involving Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.
With the World Cup winner now having just seven-and-a-half months remaining on his contract, it appears inevitable that he will hold discussions with foreign clubs in January.
According to Marca, Real will be ready to pounce at the midway point of the campaign should the Frenchman not pen fresh terms at Old Trafford.
While the 28-year-old has featured for United on a regular basis this season, the playmaker is expected to spend a period on the sidelines with a thigh injury.
Juventus - a former club of Pogba's - and Paris Saint-Germain are also thought to be interested in thrashing out a deal with agent Mino Raiola.
As it stands, it is unclear whether United will contemplate cashing in on Pogba at the turn of the year for a cut-price fee.
