Paul Pogba Reportedly Rejects Chance to Rejoin Manchester United

Paul Pogba has reportedly turned down the chance to rejoin Manchester United, according to the Mirror. Pogba reportedly has his heart set on a move to Real Madrid, with French legend Zinedine Zidane playing a big part in tempting the youngster to join Los Blancos. It is reported that the Red Devils have offered Pogba to come back and join the club, but he is holding out for a move to the Spanish giants. Pogba has been linked with a return to Old Trafford now that Sir Alex Ferguson has left the club. It has been well documented that Pogba felt Ferguson did not have faith in him and the Frenchman reiterated last season he was not interested in a move back to the Theatre of Dreams. Pogba has gone on to establish himself as one of the finest young midfield generals in the last 18 months. He has excelled at Juventus and has helped them to several trophies in the two years he has been there. It is now thought that Real Madrid are keen on recruiting the young midfielder as Carlo Ancelotti looks to strengthen the middle of the park. Last week Ancelotti admitted his interest in Pogba. "He is a very good player," Ancelotti told RMC Sport. "He has a very good future. He is at a big club and is doing a very good job. "He is a complete midfielder. Get him? Why not. This is one of the best young midfielders alongside [Marco] Verratti and Isco." Juventus would require a sum of over £49m for Pogba's services, something Los Blancos are willing to offer for the France international.
