Report: Paul Pogba will beg Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to sell him

By Daniel Lewis, Senior Reporter | 29 June 2019

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba reportedly wants his future resolved in the next two weeks and he is still keen on a move away from Old Trafford.

Paul Pogba is reportedly so desperate to leave Manchester United this summer that he will make a personal plea to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to let him leave.

The French midfielder has been touted as a target for Real Madrid and former club Juventus after admitting earlier this month that the time feels right to quit Old Trafford.

United's executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward is not interested in a sale, but The Sun claims that Pogba is scheduled to hold talks with the the club hierarchy early next month.

Pogba is rumoured to have already informed his teammates that he wants to go and he hopes that he can talk Solskjaer into persuading Woodward to end the deadlock.

The Red Devils report back for pre-season training next week and face Perth Glory in their first friendly in Australia on July 13, and the World Cup winner is said to want the issue resolved before then.

Madrid are apparently reluctant to go any higher than £90m with their bid for Pogba, while Juventus are also expected to rule themselves out of the running if United price him too high.
