Messi 'has made many calls' on Pogba's behalf

Messi 'has made many calls' on Pogba's behalf

Barcelona are working hard to land Paul Pogba, and Lionel Messi especially.

As unlikely as the move is at this stage, Don Balon reveal that Messi has “picked up the phone many times” to make sure that this move is made.

Thing is, the Catalans only have five hours in order to make this happen. Pogba is reported to have broken all relations with Coach José Mourinho. The French international was very good for his country in this summer’s World Cup, but has struggled to make an impact in the Premier League, only netting ten goals in that competition and being dropped by the Special One earlier this year.

The latest news is that Mourinho has blocked Pogba’s move, but it appears that Mino Raiola now wants his customer to get an even better deal, since the news from the last few days is that Pogba was plotting a move away.
