Sergio Ramos tells Paul Pogba to join Real Madrid

Real Madrid star Sergio Ramos has urged Paul Pogba to leave Manchester United and join him at the Bernabeu.

The La Liga giants failed in their summer-long pursuit of United's £89m man, but Ramos would like to see his side try again for the Frenchman in the future.

Speaking to the Express, Ramos said: "I think Real Madrid always has the door open for good players such as him, for me, Pogba is one of the great players.

"He is different and he has shown his value at Juventus and now Manchester United.

"I think he brings balance to a team. He has a great offensive influence and he has this amazing physique."

Neither Real Madrid or Manchester United have had particularly strong starts to the season, having both not won since their opening league fixtures.

In that time Pogba himself missed a crucial penalty at Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Next up for Ramos and co. is a home game against Levante, in which Real Madrid will be expected to return to winning ways.
