Transfer Talk: Paul Pogba move from Manchester United to Real Madrid hits snag

The coronavirus pandemic has made the summer transfer window uncertain, but here are the rumours floating around Europe's big leagues and beyond.

TOP STORY: Pogba to Real Madrid hits snag

The Daily Mail is reporting that more problems have surfaced regarding the potential deal that would have Paul Pogba join Real Madrid.

Though the France international seems determined to leave Manchester United this summer, it doesn't look as if the Bernabeu is going to be the most likely destination for him with his wage demands being the issue.

The thought is that Pogba's potential net salary in Madrid will cause discontent in the dressing room, even if the deal comes in the form of a part exchange.

Arsenal secure Lewis signing?

Arsenal may have sealed their first signing of the season in the form of Norwegian star George Lewis, according to the Evening Standard.

The 19-year-old impressed during a recent trial with the club with Jostein Jensen, sporting director of Lewis' former club Fram Larvik, stating in a recent interview with Norwegian outlet VG that the deal is all but done.

It would mark the first signing of the summer for Arsenal as manager Mikel Arteta attempts to slowly but surely rebuild the club in his own vision.

PSG finalise deal for Icardi stay

PSG have agreed to a deal with Inter Milan to sign Mauro Icardi permanently, sources have confirmed to ESPN. The Argentine striker spent the 2019-2020 season in Paris on loan and will now sign a four-year deal with the French champions.

Sources have said the transfer fee will be €50 million euros plus €7m euros in potential add-ons, which is significantly less than the €70m buyout clause included in his loan agreement.

Inter recognised that due to the current situation with the coronavirus pandemic, it was fair to lower their asking price. Inter have long wanted to sell the former La Masia graduate, who joined the Nerazzurri seven years ago from Sampdoria.

Tap-ins

-- Chelsea and Manchester United could be priced out of a big move for Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho, Goal reports. Though the youngster is interested in returning to England to compete in the Premier League, Dortmund are unlikely to drop their €100m valuation -- and given the current market, that could serve as quite the stumbling block.

-- Burnley star Jeff Hendrick has been attracting the attention of AC Milan, Sky Sports reports. The 28-year-old midfielder is out of contract in the summer, with Milan making their interest known prior to the coronavirus pandemic. They're currently looking at their options, and much like city rivals Inter, they're keen to expand further into the English market.
