The World Cup-winning midfielder has suggested that he will be staying at Old Trafford after seeing the Red Devils wrap up a top-four finish
Paul Pogba has hinted that his long-term future lies at Manchester United, with the World Cup winner looking forward to gracing the Champions League again with the Red Devils.
For long periods in 2019-20, it appeared as though qualification for elite European competition would be beyond Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side. The clock also looked to be ticking on Pogba’s second stint at Old Trafford, with regular rounds of transfer talk seeing him linked with a move elsewhere.
The France international had suggested in the past that he was ready to take on a new challenge, while injury struggles were doing his cause few favours when it came to proving a point in England.
United were, however, to enjoy a collective reversal in fortune from January with the signing of Bruno Fernandes from Sporting proving to be a catalyst.
Pogba has stepped in alongside the talented Portuguese playmaker since the Premier League restart in mid-June and helped wrap up a top-four finish.
Exit rumours have faded away around the 27-year-old, with few clubs in a position financially to make an approach for a player that would demand a sizeable fee.
Pogba appears to have no issue with that and, amidtalk of a new contract being put to him, has indicated that he will be sticking around in Manchester. He posted on social media after helping United to a 2-0 victory over Leicester which secured them a third-place finish: “Let’s gooooooo Champions League baby.”
