Manchester United are reportedly keen on signing Real Madrid centre-back Raphael Varane, which would help the Liga club fund a move for Kylian Mbappe, claims the Daily Star.
Real risk losing Varane on a free transfer, with the France international contracted to the Bernabeu until 2022.
And, should they decide to sell in the summer for a big fee, they would likely be able to then make a costly move for Mbappe, beating Liverpool to his signature.
