Paul Pogba’s dream move to Real Madrid in jeopardy as agent Raiola handed three-month worldwide transfer ban by Fifa

PAUL POGBA’S summer switch from Manchester United to Real Madrid is in doubt due to his agent Mino Raiola being slapped with a three-month worldwide ban.

The 51-year-old was recently banned for three months by the Italian FA along with his cousin Vincenzo, though no official reason has yet been given why.

A statement from Fifa said: “The Chairman of the FIFA Disciplinary Committee has today decided to extend the sanctions imposed by the Italian Football Association (FIGC) on the intermediaries Carmine and Vincenzo Raiola to have worldwide effect.

“Carmine Raiola is suspended for a period of three months and Vincenzo Raiola for a period of two months.

“The decision of the FIFA Disciplinary Committee was notified today and takes immediate effect.

“For further information concerning the grounds of the sanction please contact FIGC.”

It has been claimed that the ban stems from Gianluca Scamacca’s move from Roma to PSV in 2015, but this hasn’t been confirmed.

Pogba, 26, has been heavily linked with a move to Los Blancos at the end of the season, with Zinedine Zidane understood to be a huge admirer of his French compatriot.

It has been reported that the World Cup winner is ready to push through a deal to join Real, but United must drop their £160million asking price.
