The France international’s agent Raiola is one of the best in the business and represents some of the biggest names in world football for a reason.
It remains to be seen if he can orchestrate a move for Pogba to Barcelona this season, but it certainly seems that efforts will be made for that to happen after his client’s struggles in Manchester.
