Paul Pogba has admitted that playing for Real Madrid would be "a dream" as speculation continues to grow over his future at Manchester United.
The 27-year-old central midfielder is currently on international duty for France, and came on as a substitute in the 7-1 thrashing of Ukraine in a friendly on Wednesday.
Pogba's contract is due to expire in the summer of 2021, although the club have an option to extend it for a further year.
There was talk that he could soon sign a new long-term deal at United, although this has yet to materialise.
And speaking ahead of his country's Nations League games against Portugal and Croatia, Pogba did little to play down the rumours he could be set for Los Blancos in the future.
When asked about the prospect of a move to La Liga, Pogba replied: "We have all heard these things that have been said. What to respond?
"Yes, all footballers would like to play for Real Madrid. Maybe it is a dream. It is a dream for me, why not one day."
Pogba did, however, also insist that for now his focus is fully on United, and he seems determined to help the team turn around their recent poor form.
"I am at Manchester," he continued. "We know that this has been spoken about a lot and I have not (spoken about it).
"I heard a lot of noise that I was going to leave and I was going to leave to clubs left and right. Today, I am still at Manchester United and I am fighting to try to take the club even higher."
Pogba suffered a frustrating 2019-20 campaign which was dogged with injury problems, but so far this season he has featured in all three of United's Premier League games so far, and also scored in their 3-0 victory over Brighton in the Carabao Cup.
