Barcelona want Pogba still

Barcelona remain interested in Paul Pogba and will look to bring him to Spain even if it’s not during this transfer window, according to reports.

The Telegraph claim Barca are keen to sign Pogba and are ready for a long pursuit to sign him from Manchester United.

Pogba admitted there were things he couldn’t say regarding his happiness at the club for a fear of getting fined.

Pogba was named captain for United’s opening game and scored the first goal as they beat Leicester on Friday night.

Man Utd transfer disappointment

Rio Ferdinand has admitted he was disappointed not to see Toby Alderweireld join Manchester United this summer.

“I was in favour of bringing Toby Alderweireld from Spurs,” he told BT Sport. “When playing regularly, I think he’s within the top two or three centre-halves in the country, in this league.

“I think he’s a fantastic player, he proved it again at the World Cup after not playing so many games last season.

“I thought he was a definite, he would have been my go-to choice to be honest.”
