Manchester United reject ‘£45m plus two players’ Barcelona offer for Paul Pogba

That’s a lowball offer

Manchester United have rejected an unexpected offer from Barcelona for midfielder Paul Pogba.

However, the offer is much lower than you might expect.

As reported by Gianluca Di Marzio, Barca have offered €50 million for the Frenchman, plus centreback Yerry Mina and midfielder Andre Gomes.

Both players had already been linked with moves to England already, with Everton chasing Mina and West Ham reportedly interested in Gomes.

Earlier this week, there was talk of Manchester United looking at Mina.

But it seems United have turned down the shockingly-low bid. You can’t really blame them.

Paul Pogba signed for United for a then-record transfer fee of €105 million in 2016.
