Man Utd star Paul Pogba determined to make Jose Mourinho transfer decision
PAUL POGBA has reportedly made a decision on his Manchester United future despite his acrimony with Jose Mourinho.
Paul Pogba wants to stay at Manchester United
Pogba has come under intense scrutiny over his performances for Manchester United this season and he has failed to justify the £89million that was splashed out on him to bring him back to Old Trafford last season.
The Frenchman has struggled to curry favour under Mourinho this season and has been left on the bench or taken off in seven of his last 11 games.
Recent reports suggested Mourinho has lost patience with the 24-year-old and has placed him on a transfer list along with Matteo Darmian, Anthony Martial and Daley Blind.
Express Sport understands Pogba could be axed by United for their FA Cup semi-final showdown against Tottenham on Saturday (5.15pm).
I only know one criteria – it is the way they play. That is the only way I can select players
And now according to The Sun, the 24-year-old has had a change of heart over his future.
While he has been linked with a move to Real Madrid, the report adds that Pogba is determined to make a go of things at Old Trafford and prove to Mourinho he deserves to stay.
Mourinho meanwhile, insists he won’t be afraid to drop players for the Wembley showdown against Tottenham.
