Super-agent Mino Raiola has claimed that Manchester United would have "ruined" the careers of Pele and Diego Maradona.

While Raiola gave the green light for Paul Pogba to leave Juventus for Old Trafford in 2018, his poor relationship with the Premier League giants has been well documented for a number of years.

Despite suggestions that Raiola may still be prepared to do business with the English side, he has now insisted that will not be the case, referencing Pogba's desire to find a new club as soon as possible.

Speaking to La Repubblica, Raiola said: "I wouldn't bring anyone there now. They'd also ruin Maradona, Pele and [Paolo] Maldini. Paul needs a team and club like the Juventus team he played in."

United have recently missed out on another of Raiola's clients in Erling Braut Haaland, who turned down a move to United in favour of Borussia Dortmund.
