Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has been linked with a return to the Premier League in recent weeks.
According to a report from The Independent, Manchester City are considering a surprise move for the French international. It will be interesting to see if they can get a deal done for the player in the coming months.
Pogba could prove to be a quality acquisition for them especially if he can hit top form. He was one of the best midfielders in the world a few years ago and he could transform Manchester City in the midfield.
The Premier League champions need more quality and depth in the middle of the park and signing Pogba could prove to be a wise decision. He will be available for nominal investment after terminating his contract with Juventus. He will add creativity, control and technical ability in the middle of the park.
Pogba would improve Man City
Manchester City have lacked quality in the midfield this season and players like Matheus Nunez and Mateo Kovacic have not been able to step up and deliver. Pogba could form a quality partnership with Ilkay Gundogan at the heart of the Manchester City midfield.
It will be interesting to see if the French international midfielder is ready to consider a move to Manchester City given his allegiance to Manchester United over the years.
The former Manchester United Academy graduate certainly has the quality to play for Manchester City and he could prove to be a very useful acquisition for them.
Manchester City have had a disappointing season by their standards so far and they will look to bounce back strongly during the second half of the campaign. The right signings in January could help them bounce back strongly and push for the league title once again.
Pogba could be a transformative addition for them especially if he can regain his form and confidence. It remains to be seen whether Manchester City can get the deal done. The player is still very much at the peak of his powers, and he knows the league well. He could make an instant impact.
