Paul Pogba has openly declared his intention to leave Manchester United this summer as speculation to Santiago Bernabeu gathers momentum.
The France international still remains Zinedine Zidane’s primary transfer target this summer, despite already spending over €250m on new players, however they are willing to wait and see if United accept €120m for the 24-year old.
He has even reportedly agreed to take pay cut to ensure his switch to the Spanish giants. But the snag in his reported move is premised on Real Madrid’s unwillingness, according to Football Espana, to pay the €145m asking price for the midfielder.
The former Juventus player, who is in Tokyo for a promotional event for Adidas, told reporters that a move could be imminent.
“This season has been my best.
“However with everything that has happened (at United), i think it could be a good time to have a new challenge somewhere else.
“i am already thinking about this and what a new challenge could be.”
Pogba returned to Old Trafford in 2016, in a €89m deal from the Italian side, however he has been consistently linked with a move away from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side in the past 18 months.
“I have been in Manchester for three years, and I have enjoyed it.
“Just as there always is, there have been good times and bad, but the good times I have enjoyed.”
