Paul Pogba could be leaving Manchester United for the second time as Mundo Deportivo (h/t Daily Star) report that his agent Mino Raiola has spoken with La Liga giants Barcelona over a switch in the summer.
The Frenchman re-joined United from Juventus for a deal worth £89m a couple of years ago but he has not been able to shine brightly.
The 25-year-old’s relationship with manager Jose Mourinho has also come under intense scrutiny and this is something that Barcelona are aware of.
Pogba has been in great form for France in the World Cup and he fears that returning to Manchester might lead to a decline in his growth. The French international is reportedly looking for a switch and Raiola has delivered the message to the Catalan club.
Pogba does have a contract until 2021 at United and there is no doubt he would cost Barcelona a bomb considering his excellent performance for France at the World Cup.
The 25-year-old still has a lot of potential even though he has not been at his best at United and we should not be looking to sell him at all.
Barcelona need to bring in more options for their midfield given that they have sold Paulinho and have seen Andres Iniesta leave the club too.

We should not be bullied by Raiola or Pogba and must do everything we can to keep him at Old Trafford for a few more years.
