Revealed: The £190m cost of Manchester United’s deal for Paul Pogba


Pogba, 23, arrived in Manchester on Monday to complete a medical ahead of his return to the club from Juventus and will sign a five-year contract.

United have agreed a world record £89m fee with the Italian champions with a further £4.2m in potential add-ons.
On top of the transfer fee paid to Juventus, the Red Devils will also pay 100 per cent of the money due to Pogba’s agent, Mino Raiola, who

Ed Woodward, United’s executive vice-chairman, is understood to have attempted negotiations over the £18.6m that would be due to Raiola and sources are remaining tight-lipped on exactly how much the super-agent will earn.

Pogba, 23, has agreed an enormous £300,000-a-week salary package including bonuses and will become United’s joint top-earner along with captain Wayne Rooney.
That works out as up to £15.6m-a-year and £78m over the course of his five-year contract if Pogba triggers all of the bonus payments in the agreement.
It brings the total cost of the deal up to a maximum of £190m, with United hoping that trophies and commercial deals will mean the eye-watering sums will prove to be value for money.

Pogba initially left United to join Juventus in 2012 for just an £800,000 compensation fee after he became frustrated with a lack of playing opportunities under Sir Alex Ferguson and refused to sign a new contract.
United have flexed their financial muscle in the summer transfer window despite missing out on qualification for this season’s Champions League.
New manager Jose Mourinho has landed Pogba as his fourth and final “priority” signing this summer having already brought Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Eric Bailly to Old Trafford.

Stones to City. 42m + add ons. He's been added to the CL squad that had to be registered last night, so apparently it's official, just waiting announcement.

David Luiz is/was never worth 50m

If you refering to expensive flops, I think you thinking of your own team or should I say Southampton 2.0

Carroll, Bentake, Lallana, Downing, etc

Since 92 till now Pool has spent £917,805,000 and sold for £539,300,000 with 0 EPL title to show for it...
