'Take him!' - Manchester United and Man City fans react to stunning Paul Pogba transfer reports

Manchester United and Man City fans have been reacting to reports that the Blues are interested in bringing Paul Pogba to the club in the summer.

Pogba is out of contract at Old Trafford at the end of the season and is widely expected to leave on a free, for the second time, this summer. According to various reports, which first surfaced in the Daily Mail, the Premier League champions are 'exploring' the possibility of a stunning transfer coup reminiscent of Carlos Tevez's move across the city in 2009.

Due to transfer regulations, City would not be able to put a formal offer to Pogba until the end of the campaign but he is thought to be on the list of options for Pep Guardiola. The Mail add that the 29-year-old has not ruled out a transfer to the Etihad and would consider an offer.
