Dem say na Gossip: Man City £71million for Pogba #breakthebank

Manchester City are poised to break the British transfer record and sign Paul Pogba for £71million.

The most sought-after player in world football had been lined up to join Barcelona but they could only offer £57m, clearing the way for City.

Now, the deposed Premier League champions want to tie up the deal immediately so the Juventus midfielder can join them on their two-week tour to Australia.

And City’s neighbours United will get a £1.25m windfall from the transfer under FIFA rules, because Pogba spent three years at Old Trafford as a youngster.
