David De Gea is Real Madrid 's number one transfer priority this summer - according to a poll of their fans.
And the Spanish stopper has been pictured apparently using an E-Cigarette as talk of a transfer continues.
Some 50.8% of supporters polled by Spanish daily newspaper Marca said they see the Manchester United goalkeeper as their top target.
Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba is their second choice while PSG's Marco Verratti was third.
De Gea's future remains firmly up in the air with United boss Louis van Gaal admitting the time has come for the man himself to address the rising wave of speculation.

De Gea was pictured with an E-Cigarette after United's end-of-season night out on Sunday.
With Iker Casillas' form patchy this season Real fans want a new keeper to start next year with De Gea the man in their sights.
De Gea is believed to be keen on a move back to the Spanish capital and has been stalling on a new contract at United.
De Gea's Spanish girlfriend, Edurne Garcia, has also been suggested as a driving force behind a switch back to his homeland.
Real Madrid bosses will meet with super agent Jorge Mendes in the coming week, with De Gea being the primary subject of the meeting.
The Spanish giants intend to move quickly to land the Manchester United keeper following the end of the season and want Mendes to broker the deal.
News that Mendes has been summoned to the Bernabeu will set the alarm bells ringing at Old Trafford.
United don’t want to lose De Gea, but the 24-year-old is about to enter the final 12 months of his contract and has shown no sign of signing a new £200,000-a-week deal.
