Could Paul Pogba and Eden Hazard be team-mates at Real Madrid next season?
Real are no strangers to transfer sagas, but they could be involved in two of the biggest deals of this years summer transfer window with both Hazard and Pogba linked with moves to Spain.Hazard is widely expected to join his boyhood idol Zinedine Zidane at the Bernabeu this summer. The Belgian winger even said his goodbyes to Chelsea after leading them to Europa League glory on Wednesday.Pogba has also been strongly linked with a move to Real, with the World Cup winners future at Manchester United in doubt.A move to link up with France legend Zidane has been mooted and Kitromilides admits many Madrid fans would love to see Pogba run out in the famous all-white kit.Asked for the latest news, he told talkSPORT: Paul Pogba is a player that Zinedine Zidane has publicly said he likes, and he doesnt normally go into how much he likes players when hes asked about them, so a lot of people read quite a bit into his comments.He is a player who, certainly from a PR perspective, would go down well with a section of fans who are asking for blockbuster signings after what has been a very disappointing season for Real Madrid.Zidane has publicly said he is a big fan of Paul Pogba, sparking rumours he could move to Real Madrid this summer2

They finished third in LaLiga, 19 points behind Barcelona, and went out of the Champions League and Copa del Rey. They havent won anything and fans are demanding signings.With Pogba, I dont know where he might fit in on the pitch, because Real Madrid also have quite a lot of good midfielders.But in terms of that PR exercise, he would be a big, big name and would probably cost a lot of money as well. It might be something Real Madrid are looking for in terms of getting those headlines out: We are back, we are spending money again. The latest reports surrounding Hazard claim Real are ready to make a 106m bid for the Belgian flyer and plan to sign him in the coming weeks.Some have questioned whether their seemingly imminent Hazard deal would mean Pogba is staying at Old Trafford.But Kitromilides insists Real still have a big enough wallet to finance both transfers.He added: Its been a while since Real Madrid actually splashed a lot of cash.They have been spending 30m and 40m here and there, but they havent really broken the bank since Gareth Bale signed in 2013.They could sign a lot of players in one window, they could spend a lot of money.
