Most Manchester United fans have already started preparing for life without French star midfielder Paul Pogba on their team. Pogba, who has been sidelined since December due to an ankle injury, has been constantly linked with a move away from Old Trafford and his departure in the summer seems like a done deal. However, it appears that Man Utd’s boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer thinks otherwise.

Speaking with reporters following his side’s 5-0 win over LASK in Europa League, Solskjaer told the media that he expects Pogba to be on his disposal next season.

“Paul’s our player. He has two years left on his contract, a year plus the option of another,” said Solskjaer. “You can expect Paul to be here [next season], yeah.”

Paul Pogba only played eight games in all competitions this season, and he probably won’t be returning to field until 2020/21 as he continues to rehab from an ankle injury. And while Pogba’s absence hurt the team early in the season, Manchester appears that they are clicking on all cylinders in the last couple of weeks following the addition of Portuguese midfielder Bruno Fernandes.

With Fernandes on the roster, Man Utd now could afford to part ways with Pogba, considering they would most likely get a major haul from him. The 26-year-old Frenchman has suitors from all around Europe, with Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Juventus being considered the favorites for his signature.

It turns out that Manchester United’s star midfielder Paul Pogba could have ended up in Spain in 2016 if only Barcelona had more money at their disposal. This was revealed by Barca’s president Josep Maria Bartomeu in a recent chat with ESPN FC ahead of his team’s clash with Pogba and Man Utd in the quarterfinals of Champions League. 

According to Bartomeu, La Liga giants were interested in acquiring Pogba from Juventus in 2015 and reached an agreement with the player’s agent Mino Raiola that they will have the opportunity to match any offer for France international. Man Utd came up with $120 million offer a year later, but Barca couldn’t afford to go that high.

“In the summer of 2015, Paul Pogba was playing in Turin and we simply told Juve that, if one day they decide to sell the player, we would be interested,” – said Bartomeu. “When they sold the player, they told us what the offer would have to be and we couldn’t afford that amount of money at the time. So he went to United, and he’s making them better as a team because he’s one of the stars of the world of football right now.”

Three years later, however, Barcelona could have a chance to make up for its mistakes from the past. The club is now financially stable and would have no problem paying a hefty sum to get Paul Pogba. The 26-year-old has been heavily linked with an exit from Old Trafford while Barca and Real Madrid being mentioned as his most likely destinations.

When asked about this, Bartomeu decided to remain respectful towards Manchester.

“I prefer not to talk about players from other teams because I am sure there are also players at Barca that can make other teams better.” – he responded.

The relationship between French midfielder Paul Pogba and his club Manchester United is not ideal according to multiple sources close to the situation. The things are so bad that Pogba is even considering leaving the club after criticism he received this summer from his manager Jose Mourinho.

Mourinho has openly criticized the 25-year-old Frenchman in the past, and doubted his devotion to the club. This continued after Pogba won the 2018 World Cup, with Portuguese manager wondering why the midfielder plays a lot better on the international level than with Manchester United.

All of this made Paul Pogba wanting a move from England. Reportedly, he is set on going to Barcelona or returning to his former club Juventus.

Still, there are no indications that transfer might happen. Pogba currently has three years left on his contract, and the club is not considering making a sale at this moment. The player is also expected to meet with Mourinho at some point this week and is possible that they will work out their issues.

Paul Pogba started his professional career with Manchester United, but due to a limited number of appearances decided to sign with Juventus. In Italy, he established himself as one of the most talented midfielders in the world. Between 2012 and 2016, he played 178 games for Juve and scored 34 goals while winning seven trophies.

Realizing their mistake, United decided to bring Pogba back to Manchester in a transfer worth $120 million, breaking a then-world record.
