Mathias Pogba: ‘My brother could use Real Madrid and Zidane’
Paul Pogba’s brother, Mathias, thinks that the Manchester United midfielder “could use Real Madrid and Zinedine Zidane”.
The 26-year-old has been the subject of intense speculation over the summer, with his openness about a desire for a new challenge elsewhere compounded by comments from his agent Mino Raiola.
But unlike Romelu Lukaku, Pogba knuckled down during pre-season and has provided two assists in United‘s first three Premier League matches.
Real Madrid have been heavily linked with the France international and Pogba’s brother has been discussing the possibility of a move before the European transfer deadline.
“I don’t know, I’m not inside the Bernabeu. In football you never know,” Mathias Pogba told AS.
“He is very well, as always. No one expects me to say something bad about United. He is a professional and his present is there.
“The future? It depends on the clubs: that Manchester wants to sell and that Madrid wants to buy. This is business.
“Everyone knows that my brother could use Real Madrid and Zidane. Those who have to talk are Madrid and Manchester United.
“I don’t know what to say…Zidane has always spoken well of my brother, it’s an honour.”
