The pictures of Lionel Messi and Paul Pogba together in well-known Turkish chef Nusret Gokce's (nicknamed Salt Bae) restaurant in Dubai has furthered speculations about the French star's move to Catalan from Manchester United, where Pogba has had a tumultuous relationship with Jose Mourinho.

Nusret has posted videos and photographs of Messi and Pogba at his steakhouse in Dubai.

Both Messi and Pogba are coming out of respective injuries and are not involved with their national teams during the two-week international break thus the two are enjoying their holidays in Dubai.

Messi has played only one match for Barcelona since breaking his arm last month while Pogba didn't play in Manchester United's defeat to Manchester City.

Speculations about Pogba's move to Camp Nou could get stronger after the meeting of the two for a dinner.

According to reports in Italy, the Frenchman has agreed a five-year deal to move to Barcelona worth $114m.

According to a report in goal.com, agent Mino Raiola made no secret of his desire to move his client away from Old Trafford after he was criticised by manager Jose Mourinho.

During the dinner, the Turkish chef is seen explaining to Messi the art of slicing steak.

Messi has been to other places in Dubai with his family. He has posted on his Instagram account, a photo of his kids at the Laguna Waterpark, nestled at the heart of Dubai's coolest beachfront destination at the La Mer Beach.
