Manchester United midfielder, Paul Pogba has requested for his term if contract to be reviewed, demanding for a pay rise to the tune of £500,000 per week.
The French international who is currently being tailed by LA liga giants, Real Madrid is seeking to become the club’s highest paid player.
The World Cup winner presently earns £300,000 per week.
Compatriot Zinedine Zidane has publicly spoken of his admiration for Pogba, fanning the flames of recent speculation over a move to the Bernabeu.
The 26-year-old has looked a player transformed under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and United are desperate to keep him.
There are two years left on Pogba’s contract, but the club can extend that deal by an additional season.
It is understood that United are willing to offer a three-year extension with improved terms that would keep him at Old Trafford until 2024.
