    Paul Pogba is back! This was officially announced by Manchester United at about 00:35a.m. (London Time) as the most recent recruit for Manchester United. And social media is agog with the news of the player that was let go for £1.2 million in 2012 and now bought back from Juventus at a record £89 million, making him the world’s most expensive player. It surpasses the £85m that Real Madrid paid Tottenham for Wales forward Gareth Bale in 2013.

    According to the French midfielder, Paul Pogba;

    “I am delighted to rejoin United. It has always been a club with a special place in my heart and I am really looking forward to working with José Mourinho. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Juventus and have some fantastic memories of a great club with players that I count as friends. But I feel the time is right to go back to Old Trafford. I always enjoyed playing in front of the fans and can’t wait to make my contribution to the team. This is the right club for me to achieve everything I hope to in the game.”

    José Mourinho replied saying:

    “Paul is one of the best players in the world and will be a key part of the United team I want to build here for the future. He is quick, strong, scores goals and reads the game better than many players much older than he is. At 23, he has the chance to make that position his own here over many years. He is young and will continue to improve; he has the chance to be at the heart of this club for the next decade and beyond.”
