Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly preparing a bumper contract for Paul Pogba, who will be available on a free transfer in the summer.
According to Daily Mail, Paris Saint-Germain are readying a contract offer with a huge salary for Paul Pogba, with the French giants hoping to lure the Frenchman to the club. The Manchester United midfielder will be a free agent in the summer if he runs down his current contract, and more big clubs are expected to compete for the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner.
Manchester United’s results on the pitch have been a cause for worry, and soon enough, they will have to deal with yet another problem. With the future of star midfielder Paul Pogba hanging by a thread, the Red Devils remain in danger of seeing their record signing leave on a free transfer in the summer.
Pogba has not shown an interest in renewing his deal at Old Trafford, with the most recent offer on the table reportedly not meeting his demands. While the media tends to suggest it, the French midfielder might be waiting to see how Manchester United finish this season, with the club at risk of not qualifying for the UEFA Champions League.
Pogba’s agent Mino Raiola has been angling at a lucrative move away from Manchester United for some time now. It could be the best opportunity for Raiola to get his wish while allowing the French midfielder to take up a new challenge for the next phase of his career.
The midfielder recently returned from a serious thigh injury and is keen to remain fully fit in the coming months. In the process, he will be eager to help Manchester United achieve the best possible league finish this term while also progressing in the Champions League.
While there is no sign that Pogba will renew his deal at the club, he has multiple offers on the table from big clubs. Real Madrid reportedly pulled out of the running a few months ago, as they may not be able to promise a huge financial package. But other clubs such as Juventus and PSG have made their intentions clear.
Pogba is reportedly keen on returning to Juventus, although the Bianconeri’s financial power to match the midfielder’s salary could be questioned. Moreover, their recent outlay on Dusan Vlahovic could peg them back in pursuit of key targets.
PSG are also keen on adding the World Cup winner to their galaxy of stars, including Neymar and Lionel Messi. The inclusion of the Manchester United midfielder will also boost commercial interest in the Parisians, which could benefit both the club and player.
PSG are reportedly readying a lucrative contract offer, including a large signing-on bonus and a bumper weekly salary with bonuses. While the media suggests that Pogba could wait for a new offer from Manchester United, his refusal to renew so far is the strongest indicator of his impending departure.
As things stand, Pogba could openly speak with suitors outside of England, and PSG are in the chase for the Frenchman. It remains to be seen where he ends up in the summer, with joining PSG, Juventus and even Real Madrid a strong possibility.
