Thursday's Real Madrid transfer talk news roundup: Paul Pogba, Christian Eriksen, David Alaba

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for Real Madrid on Thursday, December 10.

The summer transfer window has now closed, with Real Madrid having failed to sign a single player in one of the quietest windows in their history.

The financial impact of the coronavirus pandemic prevented the Spanish champions from doing their usual business, but a busy summer of 2021 is already being predicted with the likes of Kylian Mbappe and Eduardo Camavinga thought to be on their shortlist.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest news of possible comings and goings at the Bernabeu.

Thursday morning's Real Madrid transfer talk news roundup:


Paul Pogba 'could still sign new Manchester United deal'

Paul Pogba could reportedly still pen a new contract with Manchester United despite the midfielder's agent Mino Raiola again making it clear that his client wants to move on.

Raiola has said that Pogba's time at Old Trafford is "over" and has urged the 20-time English champions to sell the France international during the January transfer window.

The 27-year-old was subsequently left out of the starting XI against RB Leipzig on Tuesday night before coming off the bench in his team's 3-2 defeat, which saw them eliminated from the Champions League.

Pogba's existing deal with United is due to expire in the summer of 2022, and the likes of Juventus and Real Madrid continue to be linked with the World Cup winner.

However, according to ESPN, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side are doubtful whether Madrid or Juve can afford to sign the midfielder considering the financial impact of the coronavirus outbreak.

As a result, the report claims that Pogba could eventually sign a new deal at Old Trafford, although senior figures at the club are 'split' over the best course of action.

Solskjaer must now make a decision on the former Le Havre's youngster involvement against Manchester City in the Premier League on Saturday evening.



Arsenal still in hunt for Inter Milan midfielder Christian Eriksen?

Arsenal reportedly still remain a possible option for Christian Eriksen as he attempts to escape from his Inter Milan nightmare.

The playmaker has had a bad time of things since arriving at San Siro in January, struggling to win a place in the side due to Antonio Conte's formation.

Inter have publicly stated that they will not stand in Eriksen's way should he wish to leave, and a return to the Premier League has been strongly touted.

Arsenal are one of the sides to have been linked, despite the Denmark international previously spending six-and-a-half seasons with North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur.

According to Italian outlet Calciomercato, the Gunners are continuing to weigh up an approach ahead of the January window.

Borussia Dortmund, Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid and Inter's domestic rivals Juventus have also supposedly showed an interest.
