Paul Pogba’s potential summer transfer to Real Madrid has reportedly been the topic of dressing room banter at Manchester United.

The French midfield star is said to be keen to swap Old Trafford for the Bernabeu in a deal which would likely cost Real a fee in the region of £120million.

Pogba’s future seems far from certain and talk of his likely departure has threatened to undermine United’s run to the end of the season.

But according to AS, Pogba’s team-mates are amused by reports and have taken the opportunity to tease the 26-year-old.

It is claimed that United players have said to Pogba: ‘If you go there, do not forget me’, and ‘Invite me when you’re playing at the Bernabeu’.

Pogba played the full 90 minutes on Sunday as United were held to a 1-1 draw by Chelsea at Old Trafford.

The result dealt a blow to United’s hopes of finishing in the top four.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side sit sixth in the table with two games left to play. They are three points behind Chelsea, whose goal difference is superior by eight.
