Newcastle are willing to pay £300,000 a week for wantaway Manchester United star Paul Pogba.

Pogba is out of contract this summer and looks set to leave the club in June. The French midfielder signed for Manchester United for a fee of £89m, according to BBC Sport, but he is now set to leave on a free transfer.

According to Miguel Delaney, via Geordie Boot Boys, Newcastle are willing to sign the Manchester United midfielder and are looking to tempt him with a £300,000 a week pay packet.

Pogba isn’t believed to be interested in the move, and you’d expect someone of his calibre to be looking to join a Champions League side. Newcastle may have the financial backing behind them, but due to their league position, it may not be as simple as throwing huge sums of money at players.

Anyone who manages to secure the signature of Pogba is going to be signing a fantastic player, but his attitude and off the ball work may deter potential buyers. The 29-year-old has bundles of talent, but he can be a liability defensively.
