Paul Pogba’s barber lets slip that the Manchester United move is a done deal

The story rumbles on....

Paul Pogba is going to Manchester United. Probably. Soonish. God we’re sick of waiting.

There’s been, reports, bids, counter-bids, and agent toing and froing, but it looks like the Pogba will be going back to Manchester United as part of a €102m (£85m) deal. The midfielder looks set to net €13m (£10.85m) a year in wages too. No wonder he’s dabbing so much.

The move is undoubtedly the big transfer saga of the summer, so Manchester United fans are doing some hardcore sleuthing to find any news that may properly, properly confirm the deal is done.

And they may have just stumbled upon an unlikely source – Miami barber Criz Tofferson.

Pogba is currently in Miami, hanging out with Robert Lukaku enjoying an extended pre-season break.

Looking to top up his trim, it appears he recently popped into Tofferson’s store Blendz barbershop for a shape up and some colour.

Now Pogba’s haircuts are a thing of its own – along with the dab and his knack for thundering shots from outside the box, they’re all part of the Pogba package – they’re what make him one of the most sought after players in world football.

But was was interesting about this haircut was Criz’s subsequent Instagram upload.

The post ran with the caption “had to change up Pogba’s haircolor (sic) for his new team #ManchesterUnited #lyfebrand”.

Criz was quick to amend the caption, to remove all mention of Manchester United, before eventually getting rid of the photo upload all together, but that did nothing to silence speculation that the deal will be officially “on the Manchester United website, player holding shirt” confirmed in coming weeks.

Besides, it’d only make sense for someone to get a fresh haircut before a new job right?
