The French national team manager Didier Deschamps has created more noise about the future of Manchester United’s midfielder.
The 27-year-old midfielder is away on international duty with France, who are scheduled to play Finland, Portugal and Sweden in the coming week.
And ow Deschamps has said that Pogba “cannot be happy” with his current situation at the Premier League club.
Although Pogba has made 11 appearances for United this season, he has started only 5 games for them, and had to be content with a place on the bench for the game at Goodison Park against Everton a the weekend, before coming on as a second-half substitute.
He continues to be linked with a move away from Old Trafford, with persistent links to Real Madrid and his former club Juventus, whilst there have been suggestions United would now be willing to sell him at a considerable discount to the £89 they paid the Italian club for him in 2017.
United have triggered the one-year option in his current contract, and he is tied to the club now until 2022.
