Man Utd: Mino Raiola says he has 'not offended' the club
Paul Pogba will remain loyal to Manchester United until after Euro 2020, according to the player’s agent Mino Raiola who dubbed talks suggesting otherwise as “bulls***”. Pogba claimed last summer that he would like to take on a new challenge away from Old Trafford and numerous reports have suggested that he is still looking for a way out.
That is what I said in Italy and that is what I say here – and all the rest is a bunch of bulls***

The star midfielder has spent a large chunk of the season in the sidelines due to persisting ankle problems which have restricted him to a mere eight appearances in all competitions.
Meanwhile, the France midfielder’s agent Raiola has been embroiled in a heated row with Red Devils manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who reacted to a recent interview where the Italian hinted that his client could be on the move with some of Europe’s biggest clubs showing an interest.
Solskjaer responded by saying that “Paul is our player and not Mino’s” which then led to a fiery reaction from the super agent on Twitter where he stated that Pogba belongs to no one.
Raiola tried to clear the air by insisting that his comments were taken out of context and that the Frenchman’s loyalty lies with United until at least this summer’s European Championship.

“He is committed to Manchester United and only Manchester United until the European Championship this year, and then we will talk to the club if necessary.

Pogba recently underwent surgery on his ankle but a return date is not yet certain.
