PSG did look like the most probable landing spot for Paul Pogba only now, but their change of plans after Lionel Messi became available could close off the current market for the 28-year-old midfielder.
That means his best option could be to stay at Man United, and a report has even suggested that he’s now expected to sign a new deal to extend his spell at Theatre of Dreams.
The additions of Jadon Sancho and Raphael Varane should make Man United serious contenders next campaign, so if the French midfielder can stay fit and play well then they will have a very strong team.
There is also a knock-on effect here for the Gunners as it was thought that Wolves midfielder Ruben Neves was going to be signed as the replacement for the 28-year-old midfielder, but Man United have now ended that interest in the Portuguese midfielder because of this Frenchman news.
Ruben Neves could be a great signing for the Spanish manager as a midfield base of him combined with Xhaka or Partey should be effective, so this could be good news for the Red Devils and Gunners supporters.
Given the talent Man United have already recruited this summer, there will be big pressure on the Norwegian manager’s men to challenge for a title, and there’s no doubt Bruno Fernandes will be central to those hopes.
