OFFICIAL: MAN UTD COMPLETE POGBA SIGNING

The France midfielder has returned to Old Trafford
from Juventus, a mere four years after departing the
club for a nominal fee, and becomes the most expensive
transfer ever
Manchester United have completed the signing of Paul Pogba
from Juventus.
Pogba left United to join Juve in 2012 but Jose Mourinho has now
re-acquired the France international midfielder for a world-
record transfer fee.
The 23-year-old, who has long been linked with a return to Old
Trafford, has now become the most expensive player in football
history, overtaking the deal that took Gareth Bale from
Tottenham to Real Madrid in 2013.
"Manchester United is delighted to announce that Paul Pogba has
completed his transfer from Italian club Juventus," the club
wrote on their official website.
"Paul joins on a five-year contract, with the option to extend
for a further year."
Pogba is reported to earn an astonishing £104m pre-tax salary
over five years, a figure that put off Real Madrid, who were also
in the running for his signature, with Cristiano Ronaldo the only
Los Blancos star to earn more than that amount .
The Frenchman made just seven appearances for United during
his initial stint with the club, and failed to complete 90 minutes in
the Premier League under the management of Sir Alex Ferguson.
But while there was some bitterness on both sides at his departure
for Italy, Pogba has made the decision to rejoin the club as they
look to vastly improve on the fifth-placed finish secured under
Louis van Gaal in 2015-16.
The transfer represents the latest arrival under Mourinho, with
United having embarked on a major recruitment drive this
summer having already acquired the likes of Zlatan Ibrahimovic,
Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Eric Bailly.
