Man Utd push to close Pogba deal in coming days

Manchester United aim to complete the world record transfer of Paul Pogba in the coming days.

The Mail on Sunday says United will look to finalise a world record £110million transfer of Pogba from Juventus this week.

Talks are at a critical stage after Pogba's agent Mino Raiola flew to Miami to meet with his client and discuss the finer details.

On Saturday, Juventus agreed to pay Napoli £78m for striker Gonzalo Higuain and there is a general acceptance from the Italians that, if United agree to pay the 20 per cent bonus due to Raiola and Pogba, which represents an additional £18.4m, they will allow the 23-year-old to return to Old Trafford.
