Vidal and Pogba: a duo formed at Juventus that could be reunited at Barça
After signing Arturo Vidal, Barcelona are considering a big money move for Manchester United's Paul Pogba
FC Barcelona are ready to cause yet another shock in the transfer market. After signing Arturo Vidal, the club continues to look for players who can improve their first team squad. It appears they won't be doing anything by half-measures as Barça's dream is to reunite a midfield duo which was formed at Juventus: Vidal and Paul Pogba.
The relationship between the French midfielder and his coach at Manchester United, Jose Mourinho, isn't good and he's ready to leave the English club for the second time in his career. His agent, Mino Raiola, is expected in Manchester this week to negotiate the transfer of Pogba out of Old Trafford. According to various English media outlets, Raiola believes an offer of £100m would be enough for United to sanction the sale.
Barcelona want Pogba to complete their midfield. The Catalan club are working on deals to sell Aleix Vidal, Yerry Mina, Andre Gomes and Paco Alcacer to raise the funds to bring in the World Cup winner. The two first met at Juventus and remain good friends to this day. During France's World Cup celebrations, Pogba didn't forget about his former teammate. "Ehh my Arturo, the crazy one. Yes, he congratulated me. Thank you. He's my friend, I grew up with him. He's a star," said Pogba.
