It happened with
Lionel Messi
and will it become common currency?
Although it is a way of saying, of course, because it is the absence of cash that is surprising in these cases: players who choose
not to renew
their
contracts
with their teams
to go to a new club
without a millionaire transfer.
The man in question this time is
Paul Pogba
, who is planning to leave Manchester United for Real Madrid.
This was reported by the British media
Daily Star
, which assured that the 28-year-old Frenchman has decided to complete this season with the Red Devils jersey (the last of the five he had signed for 75.4 million pounds) but not to renew in 2022 and sign with the Spanish team.
The Star also mentions that Pogba's decision would be accompanied by the arrivals to Madrid of his compatriot
Kylian Mbappé
, who is in conflict with Paris Saint-Germain and was even whistled by the PSG public at the team's presentation this Saturday, and by the Norwegian
Erling Haaland,
whom the English newspaper almost assumes will wear white next year.

In the case of the forward, Messi's new teammate in the Parisian team, the situation would be similar to that of Pogba. He has long been in negotiations that are neither going backwards nor forwards regarding the renewal with the club, which led fans to repudiate him when he was named before the game against Racing Strasbourg. The fans consider that the 22-year-old star is
"taking them for stupid
.
"
These two very high flight signings for free, without paying any transfer for their passes and only investing in their contracts, would allow Madrid to have enough money to go for Haaland, a Borussia Dortmund man on whom from 2022 will come into effect a rescission clause of
an almost ridiculous value
for the figures that are currently handled and for a player of his category: "just"
75 million euros.

Of course, there are clubs that will line up to take him away, so chances are he will end up negotiating a way out.
And with what will be saved for Pogba and for Mbappé, the
merengue
club
would have
a tank of tickets
ready to be fired with destination Dortmund.
