Time is running out

Days go by and the signing of Pogba is becoming more and more difficult. In fact, this Thursday a decision could be made on him one way or another. 

There is a race against the clock because the Premier League transfer window closes on 8th August at 6pm (7pm in Spain) so United must make a decision. 

The Red Devils have four days to get a replacement if the Frenchman goes to Real Madrid, but if they do not sign anyone, that could mean he will not be able to leave. 

Zidane knows that he may not be able to get his biggest target. He asked the club to put lots of effort into signing him, but the club must first sell before making such a big transfer. 

And the thing is United are asking for 170 million euros for the footballer so Real Madrid will have make money. This could be done by selling the likes of Bale, James and Mariano, 'AS' report. 

That could allow the club to have some room for manoeuvre in the FFP aspect and offer the English side a large sum of money. 

If there is no news on Thursday, Pogba's move for Real Madrid is getting difficult. If the opposite happens, the door will be more open than ever before. The countdown has started.
