So the worst kept secret of this season’s transfer window has finally been revealed as Manchester United confirm the signing of Juventus and France International Paul Pogba for an astonishing £89m. The midfielder has arrived at Manchester United for a medical before he could sign on the dotted lines for the Old Trafford outfit.
It is normal for fans to get excited about signing a world class player, but United’s move for Pogba has taken the fan frenzy to the next level, as Manchester’s official Airport account confirmed the arrival of the Euro finalist.
