With Manchester United suffering for three years in the post-Sir Alex Ferguson wilderness, the club will smash the world transfer record on Monday by signing Paul Pogba for 120 million euros.
It has undoubtedly been the transfer saga of the summer with potential deals elsewhere for Alvaro Morata and N'Golo Kante wrapped up relatively quickly.
MARCA understands that the Frenchman will finally close his long protracted move back to Old Trafford on Monday.
Pogba's move however has seen many twists and turns with the Italian champions initially adamant they wouldn't sell, yet it appears Jose Mourinho will finally get his fourth fundamental signing.
There is a degree of trepidation amongst sections of the United faithful given the midfielder left the club in 2012 for next to nothing, but it is accepted that was mainly due to issues with Ferguson.
He is expected to earn an annual salary of around 18 million euros in Manchester once a deal is officially completed as United will market him as one of football's global stars.
