Manchester United Set To Break World’s Record Transfer For Pogba
Manchester United set to break the world’s record transfer for Pogba. The Red Devils are ready to beat Gareth Bale’s £86million switch to Real Madrid from Tottenham Hotspur in 2013. Will Manchester United spend £100million on the 23 year old?
Contact has been made between the clubs over the 23-year-old Frenchman and Sportsmail can reveal that United are prepared to pay him £300,000 a week on a five-year contract.
Pogba is open to joining Jose Mourinho at Old Trafford and his agent, Mino Raiola, is at the centre of negotiations. Raiola also represents Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who joined United for free from Paris Saint-Germain.
Ed Woodward, the United vice-chairman, is orchestrating the £100m move while Pogba is at the European Championship with France and he is set to start against Germany in their semi-final.
Juventus told United they will have to pay a world-record transfer fee to land him, beating Gareth Bale’s £86m switch to Real Madrid from Tottenham Hotspur in 2013.
