Paul Pogba got 13 goals and nine assists in the Premier League this season

The midfielder has previously said it would be a dream to play under Zidane and reports claim he would even take a pay cut to make the move happen.However, Madrid fans arent overly keen on the 26-year-old.AS.com asked 160,000 fans who the clubs most important purchase would be this summer and only 11 per cent went for Pogba. Murphy, the former Premier League midfielder, believes Manchester Citys De Bruyne would be a better buy.The Belgian only made 19 Premier League appearances this season due to injury and started on the bench for the FA Cup final victory over Watford.Murphy told talkSPORT: If you think of Real Madrid going for Pogba and saying, Well build a team around him theyd have to spend a hell of a lot of money.GETTY2

Kevin De Bruyne spent most of the season on the sidelines

If youre Real Madrid and youre the biggest club in the world and youve got unlimited funds, Id be trying to tempt De Bruyne.City might never let him go because hes that good, but he hasnt played much.Id be saying to him, Well pay you whatever you want and well build this team around you.”
