“Sign for Real Madrid?”
“For the family it [a move to Real Madrid] would be interesting”, said Pogba Sr.in an interview with Spanish TV channel Cuatro [via AS], when asked if his son is moving to the Spanish capital.
“He’s a talented player”.
However, Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is reportedly not convinced about Pogba’s abilities. The former Inter boss wants to offer 120 million to Juventus and € 14 million a year to Pogba for the the next five years for a total investment in the region of € 250 million.
Pogba is one of the most exciting prospects in Europe and would be an incredible signing at Man United if a deal is reached.
The Portuguese would hope agreeing to Pogba’s salary expectations could do this and the influence of the player’s agent, Mino Raiola, may also be a telling factor.
The report says United are negotiating with Juve in Pogba’s absence, with the France star now on worldwide duty at Euro 2016.
