Barcelona: Meeting planned with club to discuss signing of world star – reports

Special

You would have to say that, with the transfer ban still hanging over them, Barcelona would be working miracles if they were to steal in ahead of their rivals to agree a deal for one of the best players in the world this summer.

Because, with many of the elite teams also reportedly keen, Barcelona might consider themselves an outside bet to bring Paul Pogba to the club. But perhaps we shouldn’t underestimate the appeal of playing for the best club side that the world has ever seen.

Because British media outlet, The Daily Mail, writes that Barcelona are planning to meet Juventus officials to discuss a move for the wonderful Frenchman.

They say:

Barcelona prepare to meet Juventus over midfielder Paul Pogba as a host of European clubs step up their interest

With Xavi leaving the club after such a celebrated career, Barcelona need a new, totemic character in the heart of the team and, although Pogba is a different type of player to the old pass master, he could have a similar impact on this team with his driving runs and brilliant goals.

But the fact that he wouldn’t be able to join the club until January 2016 does throw up all sorts of logistical challenges – being cup-tied for The Champions League is chief amongst them – which may mean that, if a deal is struck, Pogba could even spend another whole season at Juventus before joining Barcelona next summer.
