Pogba To Become World’s Most Expensive Footballer In £105m Man-U Deal

MAN. UNITED have locked down a world record £105million transfer fee deal with Juventus for midfielder Paul Pogba.
Pogba is expected to sign a five-year contract to move back to Old Trafford in the transfer that sees him earning more than Gareth Bale and Christiano Ronaldo as the world’s highest paid footballer. The two clubs who have been in talks with the 23-year-old France star’s agent, Mino Raiaola agreed on the fee after failing with an initial offer of £90m. Respected French newspaper L’Equipe claims all that is left before the move is finalised is for Pogba to agree personal terms.




It is understood Juventus have now accepted Pogba wants to leave the club, although the cost of the deal has already priced Real Madrid out of the market.
United's initial offer was made during a meeting between executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward, Pogba's agent Mino Raiola and Juventus general manager and CEO Giuseppe Marotta.

Pogba remains on holiday and will not return to Turin until August 6.
