New Contract Offer For Paul Pogba Causes Major Player Backlash

Paul Pogba’s stay at Old Trafford is set to be extended as Manchester United prepares to offer him a mouth watering offer which will make him the highest paid player in the premier league. But the move is getting a backlash from players. 

With a few months left on his contract, there are reports that the Frenchman will extend his contract with the English giants.

The 2018 World Cup winner, who earns £290,000-per-week, is set to be offered a bumper package that begins with a basic salary of £400,000 with add-ons reaching half-a-million pounds, according to reports.

These terms, if accepted, would see him surpass Portuguese superstar, Cristiano Ronaldo (£450,000-per-week), David De Gea (£375,000-per-week), Jadon Sancho, and Raphael Varane (both £300,000-per-week) in the club’s wage’s structure.

This offer has left members of the squad discontent over the 28-year-old’s on-pitch mediocre performances as well as his non-committal stance.

According to reports, certain teammates have taken their grievances to the board as they see the Frenchman as not worth the money that is about to be splashed on him.
