Former Manchester United star Paul Pogba has admitted that he would have been open to going to their bitter rivals Manchester City.
Pogba was linked with a move to City when he was still a United player back in 2020 and 2021.

City did look into signing Pogba, as they wanted a midfielder to replace their departing captain Fernandinho.
“Honestly, I had a lot of problems,” Juventus midfielder Pogba told the Daily Mail.
“I had the burglary, I had (a) problem with the extortion. I had to leave Manchester. Let’s say it like this: if I didn’t have that (problems) maybe I would have been at City.
“But with an ‘if’ you can save the world because my head wasn’t about staying in Manchester. But it wasn’t a closed door because I left United for free.”
