Real Madrid set to rekindle interest in Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea and Chelsea winger Eden Hazard next summer

ZINEDINE ZIDANE is already lining up moves to bring Eden Hazard and David de Gea to Real Madrid next summer, according to reports.

The La Liga side failed in their quest to lure the duo away from the Premier League in the recent transfer window, but won't give up on acquiring their services.

According to Spanish news outlet Don Balon, Madrid are ready to splash the cash on the Manchester United goalkeeper and the Chelsea winger.

The report states that de Gea is open to a move to the Champions League winners, while Zidane is desperate to capture the Belgian trickster.

Juventus' striker Paulo Dybala and Borussia Dortmund's lethal marksman Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang are two other names on the wish list.

Madrid lost out to Paris Saint-Germain in the race to sign Kylian Mbappe this summer, and are keen on adding another wide man to their ranks.

While they are also hell-bent on bringing in an experienced shot-stopper - as Keylor Navas and Kiko Casilla continue to flatter to deceive at the Bernabeu.

De Gea, 26, saw a move to Madrid fall through in August 2015, and would later extend his stay at Old Trafford until 2019 - with the option of a further year.

And his love affair at the Theatre of Dreams looks set to continue after the ex-Atletico Madrid man moved into a new property in England.

While Hazard is reportedly closing in on agreeing a new deal at Stamford Bridge, to scupper Real's move for the former Lille star.

The 26-year-old is a doubt to feature against London rivals Arsenal this weekend as he continues his recovery from an ankle injury.
