The Championship club are reportedly expecting a bid if Pogba signs for the Red Devils, and it is widely understood that Real can not compete with United in terms of financial power. Even further add-ons may come into play if he wins the Ballon d’Or.
United fans immediately jumped on the fact Pogba had made a decision to leave both his shoes and baseball cap coloured bright red in the Instagram posting.
“I knew quite early that he was going this way (to Old Trafford)”. They were though willing to negotiate shared responsibility in an effort to accelerate negotiations.
Real Madrid boss, Zinedine Zidane, however, seemed to suggest on Wednesday that his club could yet be in the market for his fellow countryman.
“Until August 31 anything can happen”.
“Everyone is interested in Pogba. You always want to have the best, but building the group is necessary to be successful”. I can’t say anything more’.
While Zidane was reluctant to comment on Pogba, he was more forthcoming on the future of James Rodriguez.
Meanwhile, United’s new signing Zlatan Ibrahimovic trained with his team-mates for the first time on Thursday.
