Real Madrid president Florentino plans offering 2 different players for Pogba

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has new plans to sign Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.

El Desmarque says Real spent much of the summer chasing the Frenchman but United stood firm on their stance that he would not be sold.

That hasn't halted Madrid's interest though with Zinedine Zidane in particular keen on adding the midfielder.

Pogba's price tag has long been the sticking point and Madrid are hoping they can lower his €188m value

But Perez is ready to offer two players plus €85m in January which he is convinced will turn United's head. James Rodriguez and Mariano Diaz are the two men he is ready to offer to the Red Devils.

The problem for the Spanish giants will be convincing United that the two players included make up the €100m required to match their valuation.
