Manchester United are reportedly prepared to make Paul Pogba the highest-paid player in Premier League history.
The France international has enjoyed a strong start to the campaign, already contributing seven assists from five appearances in the top flight.
However, the 28-year-old's increased productivity has come at a time when he has less than 12 months remaining on his contract, putting him in a position where he can speak to other clubs in January.
According to The Sun, United are ready to increase their efforts to keep Pogba at Old Trafford by offering him a contract which would break new ground.
The report suggests that the World Cup winner will be given the opportunity to earn approximately £400,000 per week, the most lucrative terms in the history of England's top division.
Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain are both monitoring the situation ahead of potentially opening discussions at the start of 2022.
