Chapter 14 Pogba

"Pogba?!"

Ancelotti stood up with a thud.

"It's that Pogba from Juventus?!"

Santokuko nodded.

After receiving an affirmative answer, Ancelotti looked a little anxious pacing back and forth.

"Where are we now?"

"Raiola guy recommended Pogba to us, the player is interested in joining, the only problem now is Juventus, we have a competitor - Real Madrid."

"Are Juventus willing to let Pogba go?"

'Pogba has only one year left on his contract. Santoko shrugged confidently.

Carlo Ancelotti breathed a sigh of relief that Juventus would indeed struggle to stop Pogba's transfer with only one year left on his contract.

"Real Madrid's ......"

"Money is not a problem for Manchester United!" Before Ancelotti could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Sandezi.

Indeed, Manchester United is a super business empire, even in the years of the low tide, the ability to make money is not below Real Madrid at all, and this season Manchester United won the treble, especially after winning the Champions League, Manchester United's income this season has naturally risen, while maintaining its status as the world's No. 1 commercial club, it has further widened the gap with the second place Real Madrid - just in terms of income, Manchester United is 200 million euros higher than Real Madrid!

Ancelotti nodded, money is undoubtedly the most central thing in the modern commercial football world. In the transfer market, if there is no obstacle for the player to join Manchester United, then the rest is purely monetary competition.

Real Madrid is a big club, but Manchester United are not afraid of their opponents at all.

As for Juventus, since it is difficult to retain people, it is naturally the highest bidder.

If it is a price competition, Manchester United still has a big advantage.

The first is the transfer fee, Manchester United can spend more of the transfer budget to compete with Real Madrid.

As a professional player, the competitive factor naturally has to be considered more.

At present, the three main players in Real Madrid's midfield are Modric, Kroos and Casemiro. Casemiro is a pure midfield interceptor, and if Pogba chooses to move to Real Madrid, his rivals will be Luka Modric and Kroos.

And if Pogba chooses Manchester United, then none of the three midfielders in the new treble-winning midfielder can compete with Pogba in terms of fame and strength - which means that Pogba can be established as the heart of the midfield immediately.

After Rooney and a group of Manchester United veterans left, they also left a huge salary space, and Pogba will also become the highest-paid part of the players at Manchester United.

Ancelotti looked a little excited, and he paced back and forth in the office.

If Pogba does become his player, then his team will have a big tactical change.

Where will Pogba play?

Left in midfield? Drag the midfield? Front waist?

There's no denying that on a technical level, Pogba is really a very well-rounded and mature player. First of all, Pogba's physical qualities are outstanding, whether it is height, strength or physical coordination, he is a rare talent. Moreover, Pogba's basic skills are very solid, passing, passing, shooting, dribbling, tackles, headers...... You can think of any technical moves on the pitch, Pogba is at a very high level. What's even more impressive is Pogba's versatility in the midfield position, whether he is playing as a left midfielder at Juventus or as a moderate lag behind in France, Pogba can play at a high level.

And, as a reminder, Pogba is only twenty-three years old this year!!

The same age as Li Qingshan!!

Especially in the European Championship that just ended this year, Pogba and France reached the final, although the final loss to Portugal made Pogba criticized, but it is undeniable that Pogba is the best midfielder in the world at his age....... One.

Back in 2009, at the age of 16, Pogba left Ligue 2 side Le Havre to join Manchester United's academy, and after joining the team, Pogba played for Manchester United's Under-18s, and in 2011, Pogba helped United win the FA Youth Cup and scored a brilliant long-range goal; Pogba was called up to the first team for the first time by Alex Ferguson in February 2011 and played in an FA Cup game; However, he has since returned to play for the Under-18s; Pogba continued his impressive form in this year's FA Youth Cup, knocking out their opponents in two semi-final games against Chelsea, and after reaching the final, Pogba helped United to win the tournament 6-3 Sheffield United.

Then there was a disagreement with Manchester United, and Ferguson confirmed Pogba for first-team action at the start of the 2011/12 season after his impressive performances in the youth team, and he moved into the United development squad and continued to perform well. Pogba came off the bench in the second half against Leeds United in the Carabao Cup and then made his Premier League debut against Stoke City. By the end of the season, however, Pogba had only played two League Cup games, two Premier League substitute appearances and two Europa League substitute appearances. Such an opportunity to play made Pogba unhappy.

In July 2012, United boss Alex Ferguson confirmed that Paul Pogba had signed with Juventus "a long time ago" and revealed that Pogba's personal contact with Juventus was "not respectful enough" to United.

After joining Juventus, Pogba quickly became a regular in the team, scoring five goals in 27 Serie A games for the Old Lady in his first season, and continued to improve rapidly with the likes of Andrea Pirlo, Marchisio and Vidal. Pogba has scored 34 goals in 178 appearances for Juventus in four seasons, and he is full of energy, skill and vision in midfield. After the departure of the likes of Andrea Pirlo and Vidal, Pogba took up the banner of the old woman's midfield.

During his four years at Juventus, Pogba won four Serie A titles, two Coppa Italia titles, two Italian Super Cups, and helped Juventus reach the Champions League final in 2014-15, where they lost to Barcelona and finished as runners-up, and he was named in UEFA and FIFA Team of the Year that year.

In the French national team, Pogba has gradually become a regular main midfielder, and he has made 38 appearances for France so far.

"Wayne Rooney has left £300,000 in salary space and I'm going to put that salary on Pogba." As long as it is related to money, Sandezi will always be so confident.

"What about Li Qingshan?" Ancelotti asked with some concern.

If Li Qingshan and Pogba were to choose one of the two, Ancelotti would not hesitate to choose Li Qingshan without thinking.

Li Qingshan's current salary is only 250,000 pounds a week, which was second only to captain Wayne Rooney.

If Rooney can get 300,000 pounds because of his previous contributions, then if Pogba gets 300,000 weekly salary as soon as he comes, how can Li Qingshan deal with himself?

In a team, the difference in status can be clearly seen in the amount of salary, if Pogba's salary is higher than Li Qingshan, then does it mean that Pogba's importance in the team is more important than Li Qingshan?

Ancelotti had to worry about Li Qingshan's side.

Sandezi obviously also thought about this: "So we plan to give Li Qingshan a salary increase first." ”
