The Spanish champions are keen to strengthen in midfield, particularly as they face some doubt over the future of £48m-rated starlet Koke, who is a top target for Chelsea and Manchester City.
Mata could make an excellent signing for Diego Simeone’s side, with recent reports suggesting he could leave Old Trafford for just £20m this winter.
The 26-year-old only moved to United from Chelsea last year, but has struggled to find his best form at the club.
