Manchester United star Paul Pogba got some fans mouth wide opened with his latest flirtation with Real Madrid last week.
The midfielder has made no secret of his “dream” to play for the LaLiga giants and reiterated that desire as he spoke to the press on international duty with France.
Pogba, who is out of contract at Old Trafford next summer, cast fresh doubt over his future as he admitted he has not yet held talks with Ed Woodward over triggering his one-year extension.
