Barcelona could get one over their bitter rivals Real Madrid.
Barcelona were held to a scoreless stalemate by Sevilla as their chance to extend a five point gap on Real Madrid went begging on Friday evening. Lionel Messi perhaps came closest to giving the Blaugrana a lead at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan with his lobbed freekick, but Jules Kounde was on hand to thwart the Argentinian ace from beating Thomas Vaclik.

Frenkie de Jong was missed in the engine room by Quique Setien and Arthur Melo did not do a great job after being substituted onto the field either. Ivan Rakitic however put in a good display as did Arturo Vidal, but both the players have a foot and a half outside the Camp Nou as they have been continuously linked with departures.
Miralem Pjanic is likely to come to Spain in a swap deal probably involving Arthur but it is true that the Blaugrana need someone who can be a goal threat and burst into the opposition’s box with his movements on the ball. Paul Pogba is such a player and will be pursued by the Blaugrana, Diario GOL has reported.
Paul Pogba has respected suitors waiting in the wings.
Juventus and Real Madrid have kept tabs on the World Cup winner after it has been increasingly expected that he leaves Manchester United at the end of the season. With that said, the two European giants have not yet made formal contact with the Red Devils and therefore, the Catalans are hoping to achieve leads and steal a player from their rivals.
Paul Pogba is undoubtedly one of the world’s best midfielders and very versatile too in the centre of the park and will be a superb signing for the La Liga outfit. However, his Premier League owners have supposedly set a price tag of 150 million euros on him and it certainly is beyond the Catalans’ reach given that they are wanting to refurbish other areas too.
Do you think Pogba would come to the Camp Nou sooner or later?
