MU was ridiculed, ‘rewarding’ Pogba nearly £ 4 million before parting

The Old Trafford team confirmed the farewell to Paul Pogba yesterday and this is the second time, MU let him go “for free” despite spending a lot of money to get the midfielder in the summer of 2016.

Before that, in 2012, the Red Devils to Pogba freedom to Juventus and this time the possibility is still the Old Lady of Turin … enjoying the spoils when the French player is expected to sign a 3-year contract.

MU has been mocked many times for shopping in the post-Sir Alex era, when it costs a lot of money but the effect is not commensurate. The closest is with Harry Maguire – the most expensive defender in the world £ 80 million.

In 2016, MU also spent a record money at that time – 89 million pounds (not including commissions for agents) to bring Pogba back from Juventus. However, the midfielder recently summed up his time at Old Trafford as ‘throw away’.

But the money the Red Devils have to spend on Pogba is not small, when in addition to a high salary, Pogba also earns £ 2.87 million in image rights, in addition to £ 1.8 million every time MU is present in the Champions League ( a total of 4 times in 6 years).

What’s more amusing, MU not only lost Pogba – let him go in free form, but also had to ‘reward’ him £ 3.8 million for loyalty, before the two sides officially ended their relationship!
