“Paul has got a knock and he started feeling it yesterday before the session and he couldn’t carry on. Hopefully he’ll still be ok for Tuesday, but we still don’t know.”

While Ole Gunnar Solskjaer expects him to be fit to face Istanbul Basaksehir on Tuesday, his availability is far from being certain. (h/t MEN)

The United star has had an underwhelming season where he has failed to hit his heights. With just 18 months left on his current deal, his future has once again been called into question.

Given his performances for the club since returning in 2016, a move away would be the best bet for all parties involved. Pogba has failed to reach the heights expected of him and has not become the franchise player that the club hoped he would be.

For now Pogba’s future lies with the club. With much of the season till to play, a lot could change by the end of the campaign. Time will tell.
