Real Madrid are readying a massive bid for Manchester United attacker Anthony Martial.
The Mirror says having lost out to Paris St- Germain for French whiz kid Kylian Mbappe, sources in Spain say Martial is the striker the Madrid hierarchy will turn to next. And they expect United to sell for around £80m.
Real coach Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane believes 21-year-old fellow Frenchman Martial can be a major world star and would fit perfectly into his vision for the future at The Bernabeu.
With Cristiano Ronaldo set to turn 33 in February, Karim Benzema 30 next month, Luka Modric 32 and Gareth Bale hampered by injuries, Zidane wants to inject his team with more youth and speed.
And he's targeted Martial as the young star to lead los blancos into the future.
