Paul Pogba's agent Mino Raiola rejects reports that a deal between his client and Manchester United is done, claiming that it is all "bla bla bla".

Paul Pogba's agent Mino Raiola has rubbished reports that a deal has been agreed to send his client to Manchester United for a £100m fee.

United manager Jose Mourinho was tight-lipped about the transfer today, but it has been widely claimed that the Red Devils are keen to add Pogba to the team.

Yesterday, it was reported that Juventus, who signed Pogba from United in 2012 on a free transfer, rejected an £85m offer, but according to L'Equipe, a world-record £100m bid has now been accepted.

In response to the ongoing speculation, Raiola tweeted: "There is no deal done regarding Paul Pogba, lots of bla bla bla."

A report in The Guardian has stated that Pogba's agent, whose client list includes new United signings Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, could pocket £18.4m once the transfer is completed.

United reportedly became frontrunners for Pogba's signature after Real Madrid withdrew from the running due to the hefty asking price.
