Braida: 'Pogba to Barcelona unlikely'

Director Ariedo Braida says that Barcelona are unlikely to make a summer approach for Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.

Director Ariedo Braida has suggested that Barcelona will not look to sign Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.

The France international still has three years remaining on his contract at Old Trafford, but there have been suggestions that the Catalan giants could look to tempt the 25-year-old into a switch to Camp Nou.

Pogba has also provided mixed signals regarding his happiness at United, but Braida has all but ruled out a bid for the World Cup winner during the summer transfer window.

Braida told Radio Sportiva: "I don't think we're going to move for Pogba, but he's a great player."

Pogba skippered United to a 2-1 victory over Leicester City on the opening day of the new Premier League campaign last Friday.
