For the past couple of weeks we have watched as drama upon drama has unfolded involving the status of Pogba’s injury and when he will return. When he seemed like a possible returnee, he was down with a cold after a busy weekend of “coupe decale” at his brother’s wedding.
Fans of course became very furious after that and called out the Frenchmen on not being a team player and said if he wants to go, simply, let him go!
Former Manchester United star Ryan Giggs has weighed in on the issue as he expressed sympathy towards former team mate, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer by calling for him to sell midfielder Paul Pogba.
The Frenchman’s agent Mino Raiola has been in and out of the news recently on comments made against United. Recently, he criticized the Red Devils amid speculation his player is looking for a move away from Old Trafford. Sportsmail revealed Pogba played through the pain barrier during his comeback matches against Watford and Newcastle last month, but the Wales boss feels United should offload the midfielder.
Speaking on Paul, Giggs said, “I feel sorry for Ole because he’s got to continuously answer questions on Paul Pogba. I say United are on a good run at the moment and that’s without him. He’s come on and done okay in a few games but it’s disappointing at the moment. He is a talent, we talk about him all the time, he’s not consistently done it for United. Ole can only deal with the players that are fit at the moment.”
Speaking on whether he believes Paul is happy at United, Giggs said, “But it’s frustrating because the lad has got quality. Like I said, he’s not shown it consistently for United since he signed, since he’s come back. Is he happy? I don’t know. Does he want to be elsewhere? I don’t know.”
January transfer window is here and United are reportedly looking for new midfielders. Will Ole finally let the 2018 World Cup winner, who is rumored to be going to Juventus or Real Madrid go? Time will tell.
