Man United fans having breakfast in the Football Transfer Tavern have decided to get the beers in this morning as news is breaking that their club is on the verge of a monumental deal.
News has come in from Italian journalist, Tancredi Palmeri, that Man United have reached a fee with Euro 2016 poster boy, Paul Pogba.
Palmeri tweeted this morning confirming that the Red Devils are set to smash transfer records and offer The Old Lady €120m for the midfielder, as well as a further €25m to his agent:
All confirmed: Manchester United reached agreement with Pogba for 13m€ wages per year and will bid 120m€

Note: if Manchester United finalise the deal, then will break any record paying Pogba 145m€ (120 to Juve + 25 to agent)

The 23-year-old left Old Trafford on a free transfer four years ago, which looks likely to turn out to be the most expensive mistake in football history.
However, Juventus seem confident of holding on to their main man, as they have made him the face of the launch of their new away kit, as reported by 101 Great Goals.
United fans, we want to hear from you? Will this deal go through? Is Pogba really worth the huge amounts of money being offered? Let us know below…
