Boost for Manchester United fans as star is set to stay at Old Trafford

Posted by

Some Manchester United fans will be pleased to hear that superstar Paul Pogba is set to remain at Old Trafford next season, amidst interest from Real Madrid.

According to The Guardian, Manchester United superstar Paul Pogba is a target for Spanish giants Real Madrid. It’s not surprising to see that the World Cup winner is attracting the interest of Los Blancos, given that football icon and Pogba’s fellow countryman – Zinedine Zidane, recently returned as manager.

The star hit the headlines for all the wrong reasons yesterday after revealing to reporters in Japan that he was ready to welcome a ‘new challenge’ away from Old Trafford.

Despite reports intensifying over a potential move to the Bernabeu for Pogba in recent weeks, it was earlier revealed that the Red Devils weren’t willing to sell the Frenchman to Real Madrid at any price.
