Paul Pogba has arrived in New York - sparking fears that Real Madrid could gazump Manchester United’s £100million world record bid.

Zinedine Zidane’s side play Bayern Munich at the MetLife Stadium on Thursday morning.

And the European champions’ boss publicly declared his admiration in the France international only a week ago.

Pogba landed in the Big Apple on Tuesday on what is the final stop in his US summer vacation.

A host of United fans tweeted their concern that their club’s move could now be on the rocks with Real swooping in.

One supporter @joelsajimon99 wrote: "Pogba is in New York. Real Madrid are in pre season in New York. Good bye to my hopes and dreams.”

Another posted: "@stink_meaner21: And Pogba and Real Madrid are both in New York. Its not looking good."

But despite the delay Pogba, 23, is understood to have agreed personal terms worth a staggering £250,000-a-week to join forces with Jose Mourinho.

The proposed switch comes four years after he was sold by former Old Trafford boss Sir Alex Ferguson to Italian champions Juventus - for just £800,000.

New United boss Mourinho wanted the deal done before this weekend’s Community Shield against leicester at Wembley.

But United continue to play the waiting game with no official agreement in place for Pogba’s signature.

Pogba would become United’s fourth summer signing following the arrivals of Eric Bailly, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

After losing the Euro 2016 final with France last month, he has spent his holiday in the US taking in Miami, Los Angeles and Las Vegas.

Now he is in New York - despite hopes from many Manchester United fans on Twitter that he was on his way to England.

Pogba posted a cryptic tweet from LAX airport on Monday as his flight into NYC was delayed.

It prompted a host of tweets from United fans whose hopes of him touching down in the North-West were significantly raised.

One supporter Kev McGhee posted: "Get yourself to Manchester for your medical.”

Another fan, Darren Main, added: "Hope that flights going to Manchester!"

But with Pogba now in New York, the saga of his move is to continue.

A Sky Sports News presenter doorstepped Pogba in Vegas on Monday to ask him about the prospect of him going back to Old Trafford.

"We'll see," Pogba teasingly replied.

This came after Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho posted a photograph of himself hard at work on Monday afternoon as he prepares for the new season.
