Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho's good relationship with Mino Raiola is giving them the edge in the race for Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba.
AS says United's close and productive relationship with Raiola could be the thing that tips Pogba's future in their favour.
Mourinho has helped Raiola out of a sticky situation with his pursuit of Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
Borussia Dortmund said he was not for sale but United have reportedly made them an offer they cannot refuse and he looks to be on his way out of the Bundesliga side.
Another of Raiola's clients Zlatan Ibrahimovic is on his way to Old Trafford on a free transfer.
