Barcelona are happy to wait until January for Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.

El Mundo Deportivo says Pogba IS on Barca's shopping list and if they can't do a deal this month, they will return with a new offer in January.

The message from United is that Pogba is not for sale. With the Premier League transfer window closed, United won't consider selling with no chance of finding a replacement.

However, that won't put off Barca, which are leaning on super agent Mino Raiola to put regular pressure on United in the coming months to part with his client.

Pogba has offered his own encouragement, meanwhile, with claims he'd be "fined" if he offered publicly his real thoughts on his situation.

Earlier this week, Barca chief Ariedo Braida said: "Pogba? I do not think we're going to move, but he's an amazing player.

"Today we are talking more money than football. The important thing is to buy well and make no mistakes."
