Sir Alex Ferguson 'gives approval to Paul Pogba deal'

Former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson reportedly gives Jose Mourinho the green light to re-sign Paul Pogba in a world-record deal.

Former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has reportedly given his approval for the club to re-sign Paul Pogba this summer.

The 23-year-old left Old Trafford on a free transfer during Ferguson's tenure in 2012, with the Scot famously falling out with the player and his agent Mino Raiola over the saga.

However, the Daily Mail reports that new boss Jose Mourinho sought Ferguson's opinion over a dinner at the club's training ground, and that the 74-year-old gave the deal the green light.

Pogba will become the world's most expensive player should the transfer go through after the two clubs agreed on a fee that could cost United up to £100m.

Personal terms have also reportedly been agreed, with the final details of the contract now being sorted and official confirmation expected in the coming days.
