Manchester United and Real Madrid are both lagging behind the leaders in their respective league tables. They have not performed well so far and that has affected the football giants very much. Although both teams may sign a few players in the transfer window, a few players could be exchanged which could help both the teams.
Manchester United and Real Madrid have been involved in a number of transactions before and every transfer window has rumours involving these two clubs.
On that note, we have compiled a list of three swaps which Florentina Perez and Ed Woodward must consider which would help both clubs.

#3 Alexis Sanchez - Marco Asensio
Primarily left-wingers, both these players are not in their best of forms at their clubs right now. While Alexis Sanchez has failed to settle in at Manchester United, Asensio has not successfully been able to succeed Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid so far.
Sanchez has played in La Liga before with Barcelona and his experience would be vital to give Real Madrid some breathing space before deciding on a long-term successor for Ronaldo. Real have lacked the edge in their attack this season and Sanchez would be an ideal solution to fix this.
A lot was expected of Asensio but the Spaniard has been underwhelming this season. He needs a change immediately and he would be a good fit at United where youngsters are given a lot of encouragement, especially if the Red Devils' Norwegian caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer lives up to his words of going the Sir Alex Ferguson way. His pace and accuracy would be useful in the English Premier League and Asensio could be a success.
Considering the circumstances, it would not be a bad idea for both the clubs to think about this possibility.
#2 Anthony Martial - Isco
Anthony Martial has been in good form as he has consistently scored for Manchester United this season. The Frenchman has started to become a more mature player and would start to attract bigger clubs in the future.
On the other hand, Isco is now considered as one of the best attacking midfielders in world football, despite his lack of form and starting opportunities this season, specifically under Santiago Solari. He is rumored to be looking for a move to the English Premier League.
Although unhappy during the Mourinho regime, Martial is flourishing now, which could be the qualities in a player Real Madrid are looking for now, to get out of the mess they find themselves in, in La Liga.
Isco is a quality player and he would serve well at Manchester United who lack a good playmaker who can assist very often.
#1 Romelu Lukaku - Gareth Bale
Gareth Bale has been fragile and failed to become the central figure at Real Madrid after the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo. Although he has scored goals, he has been far too inconsistent and Real Madrid may look to off-load him very soon.
On the other hand, Romelu Lukaku is not making an impact as a Manchester United player and has mainly been serving the role of a target-man in the team. It might be difficult for Manchester United to let go of him but if Bale can be obtained in return, they could be tempted by the possibility.
Karim Benzema may not have a long future at Real Madrid and Lukaku could fill those boots with ease. If Real Madrid can also sign Eden Hazard, the Belgian duo could well bring back the good times to Real Madrid.
Bale is experienced in the Premier League and is a natural right-winger, a position which United has not been able to fulfil in the past few seasons. His pace would do well in the Premier League and Bale's towering presence would be an advantage.
