Over the past few weeks, Paul Pogba’s situation at Manchester United has improved after earlier reports suggested the midfielder had a falling out with his manager, Jose Mourinho.
This was acknowledged by the World Cup winner’s agent, Mino Raiola, who admitted his client and the Portuguese tactician have “patched up” and the 25-year-old is now ‘calmer’ at Old Trafford.
The last page of Mundo Deportivo today has a story about the France international, and Miguel Rico’s report in Saturday’s edition of the newspaper should bring good news to United fans.
He praises the La Liga winners general manager, and Pep Segura’s art of not being precise when talking about players at the Camp Nou and the club’s targets.
Rico was referring to Segura’s comments to Caden SER when asked if he would prefer to have Pogba or Ajax’s Frenkie de Jong at the Catalan club.
Any approach for the former Juventus star would cost Barca over and above €100m and Rico claims it is madness to spend big money on Pogba, who do not posses the DNA of the club.
Rico expresses his delight by saying ‘thank god’, the Blaugrana prefer the Netherlands international over the Manchester United star, and it shouldn’t cost them anywhere close to €100m.
