Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane is staying in contact with Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.

Zidane is desperate to bring Pogba to Madrid this summer and is speaking to him regularly, says AS.

Pogba's agent, Mino Raiola, declared on Friday that "everyone" inside United knows his client wants to leave.

Zidane, meanwhile, has urged Pogba not to create a conflict with United management and has told him to fly to Perth, Australia, to take part in their scheduled preseason friendly.

Zidane believes the best way to secure a deal with United is by easing tension between all parties.
