Paul Pogba 'sets sights on Real Madrid move next year'

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba is reportedly determined to secure a move to Real Madrid next year.

The France international's contract at Old Trafford is due to expire in June 2022, and it appears increasingly unlikely that he will be signing a new deal with the club.

Juventus, Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain are all believed to be preparing to compete for the World Cup winner, should he become available on a free transfer at the end of the 2021-22 campaign.

However, according to Marca, Pogba has 'already shown' that he wants to make the move to Real Madrid, who could open contract talks with the World Cup winner at the turn of the year.

The 28-year-old has provided seven assists in 12 appearances for the 20-time English champions during the 2021-22 season, but he is now serving a league suspension following his red card against Liverpool last weekend.

Pogba previously left Old Trafford on a free transfer in 2012 to join Juventus, where he won four Serie A titles before returning to Man United in an £89m move.
