PSG table pre-contract offer to Man Utd midfielder Pogba

PSG chief Leonardo is making a new move for Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.

Off contract in June, Pogba was in contact with Leonardo and PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi last summer.

The France midfielder is now set to leave United and Foot Mercato says PSG have tabled a first contract offer to the player and his agent, Mino Raiola.

The driving force behind the deal is Leonardo. During a visit to Qatar's capital Doha, he vigorously campaigned for PSG bosses to sign Pogba.

Leonardo's future has been in jeopardy since the Parisians lost to Real Madrid in the Champions League. However, an early blockbuster transfer would strengthen the Brazilian's position.
