Paul Pogba: Man Utd star shows off skills in down time
Paul Pogba wants out of Manchester United, three years after the club smashed the world’s transfer record to bring him back to Old Trafford from Juventus in a £89million deal.
The World Cup winner feels now is the time to embark on a new challenge after struggling for consistency during his time at the club.
Manchester United, for their part, are reluctant to let him go. Vice-Executive chairman Ed Woodward holds the 26-year-old in high regard and deems him a vital asset both on and off the pitch.
Pogba is poised to meet with Solskjaer this week once his summer holidays come to an end.

United are demanding a gargantuan £160million to let their No 6 jump ship and, as things stand, their European rivals are unwilling to stump up the cash.
Meanwhile, former Premier League midfielder Claude Makelele believes United will complicate any Pogba departure.
"Of course. Zidane values this type of player,” he said, referring to Real Madrid’s interest.
“He knows how to do everything and that is difficult. His potential is impressive, but it will be difficult for Manchester United to let him leave because he is a symbol.
“He has character, personality, game, many things. And that's always good for a team like Real Madrid.”
