Pogba agent sets deadline for Man Utd deal

Paul Pogba's agent Mino Raiola has reportedly set a deadline for any potential swtch to Manchester United, according to reports in Spain.

Marca claims that Raiola wants Pogba's future to be sorted before the end of July, so that the player has time to settle down and focus ahead of the new season, regardless of whether that is with Juventus of Manchester United.

It has recently been reported in Italy that Pogba has agreed personal terms on a €13 million a year, five year contract with the the Red Devils, and that United are set to make a world record breaking £100 million move for the gifted midfielder.

Juventus are thought to be extremely reluctant to part ways with their star man, as they are hoping to build a side capable of challenging for the Champions League next season, and they see Pogba as key to their plans.

Furthermore, Juventus are preparing a mammoth €94 million offer for Napoli striker Gonzalo Higuaín, with many fans speculating that this is an indication of Juve preparing for life without Pogba, and making plans to spend the record fee they will receive for the 23-year-old.

However, this is not necessarily the case as the Bianconeri have already sold Alvaro Morata for €30 million this summer, and have received big offers for Simone Zaza and Roberto Perreyra, and are in a sound financial position irrespective of player sales.
