Football agent Mino Raiola has announced that he intends to conduct a big transfer with Real Madrid this summer, suggesting that Manchester United star Paul Pogba could finally be Bernabeu bound, report agencies.
The France international has long been linked with a summer move to the Spanish outfit and after another unsettled season at Old Trafford, during which he has been plagued by injury issues, he could well depart in the summer.
Although Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been adamant that Pogba will be remaining at United, Raiola has served to fan the flames over a possible exit by stating that he
hopes to send a "great footballer" to Madrid.
"My relations with Real Madrid are very good," he told Marca . "I want to take a great footballer there and I will try this summer. It would be a pride for me and my footballers because Real Madrid is a great club. Alphonse Areola is already there, but it’s only half an operation because it’s a loan deal.
"I am in contact with [general director] Jose Angel Sanchez and I love discussing football and FIFA issues with him because his opinion interests me. I have great hope that one day he will be able to lead a great footballer to Real Madrid."
Asked about Pogba's situation, Raiola added: "Paul is going through a difficult time, but let it be clear because in England they are very sensitive, Pogba is focused on making a great end to the season with Manchester United.
