Manchester United are still in talks with Real Madrid over the prospective signing of striker Alvaro Morata, according to reports.
Despite making just 17 starts in all competitions this season, the 24-year-old has scored 20 goals, prompting much interest from some of Europe's biggest clubs.
According to Sky Sports News, Man United had seen a £52.4m offer rejected by the Champions League and La Liga winners, with Real thought to want in the region of £78m for the forward.
The report goes on to suggest that this has not deterred the Red Devils, who remain confident of pulling off the transfer, while David de Gea is not thought to be part of the deal.
Born in Madrid, Morata progressed through the Real academy before moving to Juventus in 2014, impressing in Italy as Los Blancos triggered the buy-back clause in his Bianconeri contract.
