Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has been told ‘the door is open’ for him to join Real Madrid – by Los Blancos and Spain captain Sergio Ramos.
Pogba was strongly linked with moves to Real and former club Juventus over the summer, but the French star failed in his attempts to leave Old Trafford.
The 26-year-old declared at the start of the window he wanted to leave United for ‘a new challenge’, while his agent Mino Raiola and his brother talked up possible moves to Italy and Spain.
And while Red Devils chiefs may have won this round, the Pogba saga is far from over and the rumours are widely expected to start again when the transfer window reopens in January.
And Ramos says ‘great player’ Pogba will always be welcome at the Bernabeu.
Speaking to the Daily Express at the premiere of his new Amazon Prime series, Ramos said of the United midfielder: “I think Real Madrid always has the door open for good players such as him.
“For me, Pogba is one of the great players.
“He is different and he has shown his value at Juventus and now Manchester United.
“I think he brings balance to a team. He has a great offensive influence and he has this amazing physique.”
The centre-back’s new documentary show is titled ‘El Corazon de Sergio Ramos’, which translates as ‘The Heart of Sergio Ramos’.
It follows the Real Madrid and Spain captain’s movements throughout the 2018/19 season, which was ultimately a failed campaign for Los Blancos as they finished 19 points off LaLiga champions Barcelona, were dumped out of the Champions League by Ajax and were also beaten by fierce rivals Barca in the Copa del Rey semi-finals.
