The agent of Paul Pogba says a move to Manchester United is still to be closed.

The Juventus midfielder is hot property in Europe, with his former English employers understood to be the hot favourites for his prized signature, with a €120million fee allegedly already agreed with the Old Lady.

“No deal done between clubs”, Raiola wrote on his Twitter account.

Mino Raiola has a very good relationship with Manchester United and it is believed that Raiola has promised the club he will do his utmost to persuade Pogba to join them.

Goal reported earlier this month that United have an agreement in place to sign Pogba for €110m (£92m), which would make him the most expensive player of all time.

“Until August 31 anything can happen, but today he is not a Real Madrid player and I cannot talk about what will happen”.

“In this moment we are still working, and I can not say anything more”, said Zidane.

While the coach tried to respect Juventus’s contract with the player, he clearly admitted that Real Madrid are indeed interested in Pogba.
