After 32 games, Carlo Ancelotti's men are 15 points ahead of second-placed Barcelona, who have a game in hand.
Meanwhile, Los Blancos are in talks to sign a midfielder from Manchester United this summer. In other news, the Spanish champions are willing to pay €70 million for a Chelsea full-back.
On that note, here are the top Chelsea transfer stories as of April 20th, 2022:
Real Madrid is in negotiations to sign Paul Pogba.
According to Sky Sports, Real Madrid are in talks to sign Paul Pogba this summer. The French midfielder has struggled with injuries and a lack of form this season for Manchester United. The Red Devils' contract with the 29-year-old will expire this summer. Los Blancos is one of the clubs hoping to sign him on a free transfer.
Pogba has been in and out of the United Kingdom since his return to Old Trafford in 2016. He has shown glimpses of his world-class abilities, but his lack of consistency has divided opinion. This summer, the Frenchman is expected to end his association with United. Real Madrid are keeping a close eye on his situation and want to bring the 29-year-old to the Santiago Bernabeu.
This summer, Ancelotti plans to reshape his midfield. Both Toni Kroos and Luka Modric are nearing the end of their careers, so the Italian wants to help them relax. Pogba has emerged as a potential replacement, with the Frenchman being a long-term target for the La Liga giants. The player's entourage has already spoken with the club about a possible move.
Despite Pogba's struggles at Old Trafford, Los Blancos believe the Frenchman could be a wise acquisition. A move, on the other hand, could turn out to be a complicated affair for a variety of reasons. As he could join on a Bosman move, the 29-year-old is likely to command a high fee and a signing-on bonus.

As he could join on a Bosman move, the 29-year-old is likely to command a high fee and a signing-on bonus. Meanwhile, he is also wanted by Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and Juventus, so convincing them to let him go will be difficult.
Los Blancos are prepared to pay €70 million for Reece James.
According to The Hard Tackle via Fichajes, Real Madrid is willing to pay €70 million for Reece James. The La Liga giants are looking for a new right-back this summer, owing to Dani Cavajal's lackluster form. After a string of impressive performances for Chelsea, James has emerged as a possible option.
Ancelotti is very impressed with James and wants him to join his squad. Los Blancos are willing to pay €70 million for the 22-year-old this summer, believing he can be a long-term fixture in the position. The Blues, on the other hand, are unlikely to let him go because James is an important member of Thomas Tuchel's squad. In 31 appearances this season, James has six goals and seven assists.
