News: Barcelona to offer €120m in order to have hope in signing Man United Star Pogba in January
Amid reports that
Barcelona will revisit their interest in Paul Pogba in January, it’s been
claimed they’ll have to splash out a significant fee to sign the Man Utd
superstar.
As
per The Guardian,
the World Cup winner raised doubts over his future at Old Trafford this month
after conceding that he isn’t entirely happy while it’s added that a reported
deal was agreed with Barca via his agent, Mino Raiola.
In turn, speculation has
already been rife, and with the Red Devils continuing to struggle having fallen
to back-to-back defeats against Brighton and Tottenham in the Premier League,
it has led to further question marks being raised.
Report already had that although Barcelona have conceded defeat
in their hopes of signing Pogba before Friday’s transfer deadline in Spain,
they will try again in January to prise the French international away from
United, and he could also be ready to force a move through.
A departure this month
was always unlikely given United’s inability to sign a replacement after the
August 9 deadline for Premier League clubs, but it seems as though they’ll face
a fresh fight in the New Year to keep hold of their influential midfielder.
Now, Don
Balon have claimed that it will take around €120m to
convince United to sell in January and it’s a fee that Barcelona are capable of
shelling out.
Albeit Ernesto Valverde
already has quality options in that department with the likes of Sergio
Busquets, Ivan Rakitic and Arturo Vidal, all three are now over 30, and so
Pogba, 25, could be an ideal long-term solution for the La Liga champions.
Nevertheless, time will tell if an agreement can be
reached between the two clubs first as Man Utd will surely have no interest in
allowing one of their most important figures to leave unless they have a
capable replacement already in mind.
