Rumour that Inter Milan might look at signing Pogba if they receive a large fee for Lukaku.

No idea if it's true, if Pogba would consider Inter or whether United would accept any bid.

But it would be good if we had more than one side interested in him.

With PSG seemingly on the cusp of signing Messi, I really can’t see them moving for Pogba this summer, especially if they plan on keeping Mbappe as Poch suggested earlier. At this point, it’s starting to look all but certain that Pogba will be leaving on a free again next summer.

Why would he go to Inter when he could have his pick of the best sides in Europe in six months time while also picking up a hefty signing on bonus? I can’t see it happening, myself. We should have sold him last summer or locked him down to a new contract to protect his value.

The real kicker isn’t that he’ll be leaving for free, but that his high wages may well prevent us from signing a more defensive minded midfielder this summer. We can only hope that he’ll give it his all this season; if not for the club, but for the clubs he’ll be interested in signing him come January. Sadly, one suspects that after he’s signed a pre-contract he’ll offer very little.

We can all hope shappy but reading ed002's comments on how poor we are at dealing with players who want to leave it doesn't fill me with any confidence we will do what is needed. To know the club in a laughing stock is a sorry state. Looks like we will be going with what we have now for next season.

@Shappy re:Pogba to Inter.

Highly unlikely. Inter just signed Cahlanoglu who joins Barella, Brozovic and others in midfield. They have other priorities like both wingbacks and a Lukaku replacement, should he leave.

Moreover if they sell Lukaku a considerable part of the transfer fee will go to pay pending debts on the Lukaku transfer from us to them. Some reporters are expecting Intee to spend just about 40m from the Lukaku money.
As a sidenote, inter s owners are financially in trouble and an investment fund was brought in. (Oak tree) .
One of the conditions set by the new agreement with Oaktree is that during this transfer window Inter have to generate €80million net income from transfers in and out.

Can't see it. They are desperate to lose more players along with Lukaku, and lost a brilliant coach over it. Even if Pogba was available at a cut-down fee I imagine the wages and signing on fee would negate everything they are trying to do. They might take James though, on loan :D.

If Messi truely loved Barca, he'd play the next two years for free for them.

Grim,

Why would he do that? I love my wife but I wouldn’t stay with her if she was shagging her boss.
