Ranking Real Madrid's targets for the January transfer window

2. Paul Pogba - Manchester United

Paul Pogba has been linked with a move to Real Madrid for well over a year now

Paul Pogba's situation makes this transfer all the more interesting, as the midfielder has never hidden his desire to link up with compatriot Zinedine Zidane at Real Madrid. The World Cup winner, now in his fourth season with Manchester United after joining the club on a then world-record deal worth £89 million, has reportedly grown disgruntled with life in England and is aiming to secure a dream move to Los Blancos.

Although Ole Gunnar Solskjaer categorically quashed rumours of a potential rift between the pair, there remains an air of inevitability around the fact that the 27-year-old will dorn the Real Madrid shirt at some point in the future. The Frenchman is represented by super-agent Mino Raiola, which adds fuel to the fire when it comes to a potential transfer. A big-money move to the Spanish capital is unlikely in January owing to the epic financial proportions of the deal but Raiola could well broker a deal for his most high profile client in world football.

Not a single transfer window passes by without the midfielder being linked with a move to Zidane's side and it remains to be seen if his dream move comes to fruition, be it in January or the summer.

Likelihood of Paul Pogba to Real Madrid - 5/10, maybe a surprise is on the cards?

1. Kylian Mbappe - Paris-Saint Germain

Could Kylian Mbappe complete his dream move to Real Madrid in 2020?

Much like Paul Pogba, Kylian Mbappe's move to Real Madrid is only a matter of when, as opposed to if and the French wonderkid's long-standing desire to wear dorn the white shirt of the Spanish giants could well come to fruition this year.

While Mbappe's dad said in the wake of his move to Paris Saint-Germain in 2017 that his son would have joined Los Blancos if Zidane was in charge in 2013 when he had trials at the club as a youth player, Zidane himself as admitted in recent weeks that he'd love to work with his countryman.

"I am already in love with him. I know it's Kylian's dream to play for Real Madrid."

The youngster idolized Cristiano Ronaldo growing up and the idea of potential emulating the legendary Portuguese international's legacy at the club is believed to be a defining factor in the deal. Multiple news outlets, both local as well as international, have confirmed Real Madrid's intention to sign the player, with Spanish publication AS describing the move as 'inevitable' and it remains to be seen if he seals his dream move to the Spanish capital.

Likelihood of Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid - 5/10, slim chances in Janury but as sources say in Spain, it's inevitable at some point in the future.
