Transfer News: Real Madrid are ready to make a huge offer for Manchester United star Paul Pogba amidst contract uncertainty
According to transfer news on ABC (h/t Daily Mail), Real Madrid are ready to offer Paul Pogba a mega salary package and a huge transfer bonus if he decides to run down his contract at Manchester United.
The Frenchman could have one of the biggest transfer sagas of next summer, especially since Mino Raiola hinted that his client needs a ‘fresh challenge.’
Despite the speculation, the Old Trafford outfit are said to be willing to make the midfielder the second-highest earner at the club by offering him wages worth £400,000-per-week, according to The Athletic (h/t Daily Mail).
Real Madrid to break the bank for Pogba?
Regardless, there has been no agreement on a deal yet. Thus, foreign clubs are certainly aware of this and are ready to swoop in for the 28-year-old’s signature.
Real Madrid are one of the vultures who are eager on pouncing on the opportunity to secure a deal for the French international if he decides to leave Manchester.
In fact, the Spanish giants are ready to offer him a salary in the region of £12million and a transfer bonus worth a little over £25million. However, that being said, they are also thought not to engage in a bidding war to sign the former Juventus ace, according to ABC and Mundo Deportivo (h/t Daily Mail).

It is also said that a deal for Pogba is also being eyed because it could facilitate a move for his French compatriot i.e., Kylian Mbappe, who is on top of Real Madrid’s priority list, according to AS (h/t Daily Mail).
With Juventus and Barcelona also keen on a deal, only time will tell where the Frenchman’s destination lies beyond this season.
