Should he join in the summer, he would add yet more quality to United\u2019s attack and would be an exceptional signing.<\/p>\n<h3>Manchester United Tipped to Make Shock Move Says Andy Gray<\/h3>\n<p>The former striker believes that United should cash in on Pogba while they still can, saying: \u201cWe don\u2019t know if football is ever going to be the same again and whether it\u2019ll affect player values and salaries. We\u2019re entering a world of unknowns.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut when the dust settles, if I could sell Pogba for \u00a3100m and bring in Grealish for \u00a370m I would do it in a heartbeat. It\u2019s a no brainer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUnited still might be able to get their money back on Pogba.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know his value commercially and on social media with his millions of followers. That\u2019s important to football clubs these days and it gives him an added kudos.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut fans aren\u2019t really bothered about all that. They just want him to contribute on the football pitch.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s pretty much failed at United. Is it his own fault or just bad luck with injuries? I think it\u2019s probably a combination of the two.<\/p>\n<p>Although <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/dbf053da\/Jadon-Sancho?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jadon Sancho<\/a> should be the primary transfer target at Old Trafford, Grealish would still be a good addition, and Andy Gray believes that they should sell Pogba to facilitate that.<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<div class=\"getty embed image\" style=\"background-color: #fff; display: inline-block; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #a7a7a7; font-size: 11px; width: 100%; max-width: 594px;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 0; margin: 0; text-align: left;\"><a style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1206328785\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"overflow: hidden; position: relative; height: 0; padding: 66.66667% 0 0 0; width: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"display: inline-block; position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; margin: 0;\" src=\"\/\/embed.gettyimages.com\/embed\/1206328785?et=gLTZXh-NSeBYq2Tf4YN8kg&amp;tld=co.uk&amp;sig=Yc9oMGY5IyodYr0dApxYEVDxp5qzPvxOs7G1MMkhY94=&amp;caption=true&amp;ver=1\" width=\"594\" height=\"396\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manchester United have been tipped to make a shock move involving Paul Pogba and Jack Grealish by Andy Gray in an interview with the Daily Star.
