SunSport now reports Real have opened discussions about the possibility of signing Van de Beek on loan as part of Varane's deal.

Van de Beek has endured a disappointing spell at Unit since joining them from Ajax for £40m.

The Dutchman has hardly featured under Ole, having been limited to just 36 appearances across competitions.

It is believed Solskjaer intends to involve the midfielder more next season, but the Netherlands international has been urged to seek a move away.

And with Real Madrid calling, it remains to be seen if the Red Devils would be open to letting him go this summer.
