Report: Manchester City, Barcelona battle it out for Paul Pogba

The battle to land Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba is now a two-way race between Barcelona and Manchester City, according to a report.

Manchester City will reportedly go head to head with Barcelona for the services of midfielder Paul Pogba this summer.

The Juventus star, who is said to be valued at around £60m, has been linked with an array of clubs ever since making a breakthrough in Turin.

Having been released by Manchester United as a youngster, it is not clear whether he will turn his back on his old club and opt to join arch-rivals City, or instead link up with Barcelona should they be given the green light to sign players.

It is claimed by the Daily Star that it is now a two-way race for the Frenchman's signature, with Real Madrid making it clear that they have not made an approach.

Pogba is expected to start next weekend's Champions League final against Barcelona in Berlin.
