Barcelona are reportedly preparing a January swoop for Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.

Barcelona are reportedly preparing a January swoop for Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.

The World Cup winner, who was the subject of an approach by the Catalan club in the summer, was seen having a heated discussion with Red Devils boss Jose Mourinho in training earlier this week.

According to The Independent, the Spanish giants are keeping a close eye on Pogba's situation, with a view to making another bid for the 25-year-old.

The newspaper says that Barca, who offered £45m as well as Andre Gomes and Yerry Mina in the summer window, could be willing to pay up to £140m to bring the Frenchman to La Liga.

Mourinho confirmed in his pre-match press conference that Pogba would play a part in this weekend's match against West Ham United.
