Paul Pogba linked with Barcelona move as future hots up

Published on: 19 September 2021

Pogba into the last year of his contract

Paul Pogba has enjoyed a sensational start to the season, providing seven assists in his first four Premier League games of the campaign. Although overlooked for Player of the Month, he has certainly played some of his best football in a Manchester United shirt.

However, his future remains open. Heading into the last 12 months of his contract, David Ornstein at the Athletic reported that there was increased optimism that he would sign a new deal before his current contract expired.

Pogba;s agent, Mino Raiola, hit back just days later though, saying “We’ll talk with Man United and we’ll see what happens”

Barcelona a surprise potential destination

Now, as per Spanish outlet Fichajes, Barcelona have emerged as a surprise destination for Paul Pogba.

The Frenchman would certainly add some much-needed dynamism in the Catalan side’s midfield, and could form a deadly trio with Pedri and Frenkie de Jong for the side to build upon. However, given the hefty wage Pogba would likely command, combined with the terrible finances at the club that saw them forced to part ways with Lionel Messi, this move seems unlikely.
