Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says he is relaxed on “media magnet” Paul Pogba’s Manchester United future despite the player entering the final year of his contract.
Sky Sports News reported in July that Paris Saint-Germain were interested in signing the Frenchman and were continuing to monitor the situation – especially if he does not sign a new contract before the end of this year.
The 28-year-old can sign a pre-contract with a foreign club in January but Solskjaer appeared philosophical on the situation ahead of his side’s opening Premier League game against Leeds United, claiming there will always be speculation around the player because of who he is.
“It’s been spoken and written about so often but every discussion I have had with Paul (Pogba) is a positive one.
“He knows what we want and hopefully it stays in the background and Paul and us will make a decision together.
“It (the situation) will always be like this with Paul – he’s a media ‘magnet’.”
