Paul Pogba is a footballer that always has liked in the FC Barcelona, since it contributes a series of characteristics to the game that turn him into a todoterreno of profile very little common in the centre of the field of any team.

Like this it explained it Josep Maria Bartomeu, president of the FC Barcelona, in some recent statements for 'ESPN' in which it recognised that it put in contact with the Italian team in case this decided to sell. The directors of the 'vecchia signora' informed to the leader culé of the descomunal offer of the Manchester United, that finally could not equalise.
"In the summer of 2015, Paul Pogba played in Turín and simply said him to the Juve that if some day decided to sell to the player, would be interested. When they sold to the player, said us which was the offer and could not pay this quantity of money in this moment", explained Bartomeu in the interview.
Besides, the Barcelona president elogió to the crack Frenchman. "it is improving Them Like team (to the Manchester United) because it is one of the stars of the world of the football in this moment", said. Of course, it does not be necessary esquivar that the French also tanteó the past summer, after Antoine Griezmann decided to break his pact with the culés.
The interest of the Real Madrid in Paul Pogba
Months after Pogba approached to the FC Barcelona, now seems the Real Madrid the team that has more interest in drafting him to reinforce his staff. The Frenchman has exchanged praises with Zinedine Zidane and from the next summer could be pupilo of his compatriot, that never has hid his wish to have him in the staff.
In his interview to 'ESPN', Bartomeu esquivó the hypothetical arrival of Pogba to Santiago Bernabéu. "I prefer not speaking on players of other teams because I am safe that also there are players in the Barça that they can improve to other teams", said. The history has changed a lot and now the president culé could see that the Frenchman finish in the eternal rival.
