#FootballNews : Manchester United Pogba transfer delayed and more rumours



Paul Pogba will officially become a Manchester United player but Juventus are reportedly delaying the move until they have a replacement.

Pogba is due to fly back to Europe this weekend (everyone thought he was en route last week but he jetted off to New York) and Jose Mourinho claimed Pogba could join United by Monday.

Mourinho was asked if supporters could expect a signing over the next few days and replied: "Yes we have 22 now and we are going to have 23."

The United manager again refused to be drawn specifically on Pogba.

"You are right I don't like to speak about other clubs," he added. "I don't like to speak about players from other clubs, other managers like to do that, they like to speak about my club and my players, I'm very pragmatic on this.

"The only thing that matters for me is what's happening in my house, not my neighbours's. Pogba is a Juventus player and until officially he isn't, we stay like this.

"But honestly, the market closes on August 31 but I think my club is trying to do everything to close our market before August 14 [date of Bournemouth Premier League opener], so normally next week we will have our squad closed."

Juve apparently want a man in before Pogba goes - even though they have spent much of the summer making signings to offset the Frenchman's inevitable departure. Blaise Matuidi - who was United's fallback option if a move for Pogba collapsed - is an option.

Pogba and Matuidi might both be on the move

Handily, United and Juve are both playing in London tomorrow.
A Premier League club has made a £72million offer for James Rodriguez so, inevitably, United are mooted as said club.

While Premier League interest in Rodriguez is hardly a surprise, United are unlikely to be the bidders. If they make a fifth senior signing this summer, it will almost certainly be a defender.

In case you missed it, Joshua Bohui has joined United from Brentford and Sam Johnstone's brother, Max, is on trial.

And Bastian Schweinsteiger is unlikely to play for United again.

How I was Betrayed at PDP's National Convention in Port Harcourt - Ali Modu Sheriff

Image
Ali Modu Sheriff    The crisis within the national leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party is far from over, with Ali Modu Sheriff claiming he remained the national chairman of the party, despite being sacked by a national convention. Mr. Sheriff was sacked at the PDP convention held on Saturday in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, and the National Executive Committee which he headed, replaced with a caretaker committee. Inuwa Bwala, the spokesperson for Mr. Sheriff, told Premium Times around 8.41pm on Saturday that Mr. Sheriff remained opposed to what happened at the Port Harcourt convention, since he had announced its suspension after consulting with members of the National Working Committee of the party. “Immediately the chairman (Sheriff) received another court injunction, he called a meeting of the National Working Committee and told them that it wasn’t safe to continue with the convention of the party, especially since the court had forbidden elections virtua...

See the 'Elephant Man' With 'Trunk' Caused by Rare Condition Revered as god (Photos)

Image
A rare disorder has left a man's face with lumps which many have referred to as elephant trunk and has turned him into a god as many believe he is the reincarnated Lord Ganesh. Kanai Das is reverred as a god in India Kanai Das begs on the streets and prays every night asking for forgiveness after he was born with a facial abnormality - and hopes he can be cured. Every morning he walks to the railway station and stands at one corner with his hands out in the hope of getting alms.    He patiently waits for the benevolent commuters who give him as much as £3 a day from his efforts. But the 42-year-old is not just a beggar, Mirror reports.    For many Indians, he is the reincarnation of Lord Ganesha - the elephant God known as the 'Lord of Obstacles' and they pay him money in respect.   He suffers from a rare condition called neurofibromatosis that has disfigured his face, left his facial skin sagging down to his chest and h...

The Spiritual side of Aso Villa By Reuben Abati Forwarded by NwekeFaith15

Image
 People tend to be alarmed when the Nigerian Presidency takes certain decisions. They don’t think the decision makes sense. Sometimes, they wonder if something has not gone wrong with the thinking process at that highest level of the country. I have heard people insist that there is some form of witchcraft at work in the country’s seat of government.  I am ordinarily not a superstitious person, but working in the Villa, I eventually became convinced that there must be something supernatural about power and closeness to it. I’ll start with a personal testimony. I was given an apartment to live in inside the Villa. It was furnished and equipped.  But when my son, Michael arrived, one of my brothers came with a pastor who was supposed to stay in the apartment. But the man refused claiming that the Villa was full of evil spirits and that there would soon be a fire accident in the apartment. He complained about too much human sacrifice around the Villa and advised ...

Why Marriage is Beyond Cooking & Praying for an Hour - Pastor Chris Ojigbani Talks on Trending

Image
  Pastor Chris Ojigbani   Recently, there was this controversy going on in the social media that a man shouldn’t marry a woman who doesn’t know how to cook or a woman who doesn’t pray for an hour. So, I deem it necessary to clarify the issue. As the apostle of marriage, it’s my responsibility to clarify the issue to avoid causing more delayed marriage, separation and divorce in the world.   This is the will of God concerning the issue: You must not use cooking as a criterion for choosing your spouse. Though food is important in life, cooking must not be used as a criterion for choosing a spouse. Why? I tell you three reasons.   First, a woman who doesn’t know how to cook can actually learn how to cook. Second, a woman can employ the services of a professional cook. Third, a husband can tolerate if his wife doesn’t cook very well. Tolerance is important in marriage because everybody has weaknesses, both husbands and wives. If a woman doesn’t know how t...
