Man United target Paul Pogba meeting agent today to decide future

PAUL POGBA will sit down with his agent Mino Raiola today to discuss his future, reports claim.
                TALKS TODAY: Paul Pogba will meet Mino Raiola to discuss his future
The midfielder is ready to decide his next move now that his participation at Euro 2016 with France is over.
Manchester United are eager to re-sign the 23-year-old from Juventus and are willing to pay a world record fee of £100m to bring him back to Old Trafford.
The player, meanwhile, is said to be keen on a move to Real Madrid, although the La Liga giants' interest has cooled, and Juventus hope to persuade him to stay with them.
Spanish newspaper El Confidencial claim Pogba will meet with Raiola to assess the options he has on the table.
Jose Mourinho wants Pogba to be his fourth, and perhaps final, signing of the transfer window as he looks to add more steel to his midfield.
United lost Pogba on a free transfer in 2012 but are prepared to splash the cash to bring him back to the club.
In addition to the £100m fee, they are reported to be willing to pay Raiola £21m in commission plus hand Pogba wages in excess of £210,000-a-week after tax.
Real were keen on the midfielder earlier in the summer but they are not prepared to pay the same money as United.
And El Confidencial report that boss Zinedine Zidane has not been thoroughly convinced by Pogba and therefore doesn't feel he is worth the mammoth fee.
Meanwhile The Times reported yesterday that Juventus had readied a new five-year contract worth £130,000-a-week to try and keep Pogba in Serie A.
And Raiola told the paper that it was not definite that his client would move this summer.
He said: “There is a lot of talk about Paul’s future, but maybe he will not leave Juventus.
“He is in no rush to leave, and Juventus do not want him to go. They want him to renew his contract.
“Paul is not desperate to move. We are very happy at Juventus and they are a club that want to keep their star players.”
Raiola has already helped Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Henrikh Mkhitaryan move to Old Trafford.
