PSG want to buy Pogba to keep Mbappe

Pogba is Mbappe’s best friend. PSG, therefore, wants to take advantage of this relationship to convince Mbappe to extend his contract, according to Marca. Mbappe’s contract with PSG is valid until the summer of 2022. The Paris club offers to sign more until 2025 and increase his salary to $ 35 million per year, but the French striker has not yet agreed.

Also follow Marca, the presence of Pogba, a French speaker, will bring balance in the PSG dressing room – which is dominated by Spanish-speaking players, with star Neymar and rookie Sergio Ramos .

Pogba’s situation is similar to Mbappe’s, when his contract with Man Utd is only valid until the summer of 2022. This is favorable for PSG, because the Old Trafford team is forced to consider selling and the transfer price, which can be only about 54 million USD, if you don’t want to lose this star next summer.

Salary is also a factor pushing Pogba closer to PSG. If you sell him, Man Utd will free up $ 395,000 per week in salary fund. This is a gap that can partly compensate for the purchase of Jadon Sancho, a central defender and a midfielder.

But Marca emphasized, PSG must balance revenue and expenditure by liquidating the squad, to be able to recruit Pogba. This list includes players like Alphonse Areola, Abdou Diallo, Thilo Kehrer, Leandro Paredes, Idrissa Gueye, Rafinha, Mauro Icardi, Ander Herrera or Pablo Sarabia.

Since the beginning of the summer, the Parc des Princes team has spent $ 71 million to buy right-back Achraf Hakimi from Inter, and recruited Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum, Real Madrid’s captain Sergio Ramos and Euro 2021’s Best Player goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma is free.

If he leaves this summer, Pogba will leave Man Utd for the second time in his career. He left for the first time in 2012, as a free agent. At that time, Juventus only had to pay one million USD in training fees. In 2016, Juventus sold Pogba to Man Utd for 120 million.

Follow Sun, Man Utd began to find a way to replace Pogba, with the number one target being Leon Goretzka – a midfielder with one year contract left with Bayern. But the German player is demanding a high salary, making negotiations not progress. In addition, Man Utd are also interested in Eduardo Camavinga, the 18-year-old midfielder playing for Rennes, and the Portuguese player of Wolves, Ruben Neves.
