PSG star Neymar reportedly had a phone call with Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo amid interest from Manchester United.

Neymar could leave PSG and reports have claimed both Manchester United and Real Madrid are determined to secure his signature.
The Brazil international has only been at the Ligue 1 giants since August, when he turned his back Barcelona to move to the Parc des Princes.
But Neymar is supposedly underwhelmed by French football and may be on the move come the summer.
And Spanish outlet Don Balon claim Ronaldo has talked about a move to Madrid via a phone call.
It is said the 33-year-old contacted Neymar last week.

He wanted to know if he was genuinely interested in returning to La Liga, or whether Real were just being used.
Ronaldo reportedly told him he would have a better chance of winning the Ballon d’Or should he join.
And Don Balon say Neymar was stunned by how welcoming the Real Madrid forward was.
However, he will supposedly delay any decision on his future until the end of the season.

Fresh reports speculate United’s interest may also throw a spanner into the works.
The Red Devils have insisted, publicly, they will not be signing a forward.
Alexis Sanchez joined in January and Jose Mourinho already has the likes of Anthony Martial, Romelu Lukaku, Marcus Rashford and Juan Mata at his disposal.
But Mourinho may get rid of Martial, possibly to PSG, to accommodate Neymar should the Brazilian become available.
