French World Cup winning midfielder Paul Pogba is once again all set to part ways with Manchester United as he reportedly agreed to £350,000-a-week contract with Barcelona.

According to DailyMail, Paul Pogba has told his Manchester United teammates that he is desperate to leave Old Trafford for La Liga giants.

Pogba has made it known to players and staff in the last 48 hours that he wants to be sold, two years after rejoining United from Juventus in a then world record £89million deal.

The 25-year-old is also understood to have sent a text message to Ed Woodward, informing United’s executive vice-chairman of his desire to go, although the club flatly deny this

United maintain that Pogba is not for sale, just two days before Jose Mourinho’s side kick off the season at home to Leicester. They would have little chance of signing a replacement before the transfer window closes in England at 5pm on Thursday.

It’s understood that Pogba wants to play in Spain with Lionel Messi and his old Juventus team-mate Arturo Vidal, who joined Barcelona last week.
