However, a day after the victory, the Frenchman’s outspoken agent, Mino Raiola, suggested that the 2018 World Cup winner wants to leave the Premier League giants. He said:
These comments came before one of the most important games of Manchester United’s season. The Red Devils faced RB Leipzig in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday night but suffered a 3-2 defeat to be knocked out of the competition.
Speaking after the RB Leipzig game, Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer commented on Pogba’s situation:
He added:
Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer doesn’t want to waste energy on Paul Pogba
Paul Pogba came under a lot of criticism from Manchester United fans due to his poor performances earlier in the season. The Frenchman has been constantly defended by Solskjaer, but it now seems like the Norwegian’s patience is on the wane.
The 27-year-old was one of Manchester United’s better players after coming on in the game against RB Leipzig. However, given his agent’s comments ahead of the game, it might be the right time to cash in on him.
It remains to be seen if any of the European giants are ready to invest in a midfielder who has been inconsistent in the last couple of seasons.
