MANCHESTER UNITED are on the verge on completing a world record deal to sign Paul Pogba with the player set to undergo a medical in Los Angeles.
Pogba's deal to Old Trafford has been the ongoing transfer saga of the summer but it looks likely that the deal will soon be tied up after Juventus accepted a £112million bid.
, the Frenchman who is set to earn £290,000-a-week, could complete his medical in LA on Friday before putting pen-to-paper on a long-term deal.
The move had been put on hold after Mino Raiola demanded £20m in agent fees but it is believed that United will stump up the whole cost.
The midfielder has been spending his time off in America and recently published a cryptic post on his Instagram filling his supercar with petrol before heading down Route 66.
