Real Madrid will switch their attention to signing Neymar from Paris Saint-Germain, if they can’t complete a move for Manchester United midfielder, Paul Pogba, ESPN reports.
It is understood that PSG would be open to an approach from Madrid, and are willing to sell Neymar to anyone.
However, there are doubts any club would be willing to match their valuation for a player who they paid €222million for just two years ago.
The Ligue 1 champions are yet to receive an offer from Madrid and feel it is unlikely the 13-time European champions would move for the Brazil international, given they signed Eden Hazard to play in a similar position this summer.
PSG, who do not want to keep Neymar against his wishes, are keen to negotiate a permanent transfer rather than a loan move with an obligation to buy.
