Former Manchester United captain, Gary Neville, has observed that Paul Pogba does not want to play for the club again.
According to Neville, Pogba has had his head turned by all the transfer talk linking him to Real Madrid.
“I think he is world class. I don’t think he wants to be here, that’s his problem. I think his agent’s into him.
“I said two, three months ago when he was brilliant, he’s done brilliantly for Ole, by the way, he’s scored I think 11 goals, seven assists, but I honestly thought a couple of months ago we sat in this studio at the Liverpool game and everything was brilliant about Paul Pogba and I said ‘I believe that it will resurface, the issues will resurface’.
“We know his agent, we know the influence he has on him, we know that Pogba has got his head turned by other clubs and he’s playing like somebody who’s had his head turned.
“He’s playing like somebody who doesn’t quite want to be here.
“The problem is if a player doesn’t want to be at a club and he has the influence that I think he has in the dressing room, I think the likes of Jesse Lingard, Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, I think they do come off him.
“And I think if he’s not quite at it and not raring to go, then it is a problem, it is a massive problem,” Neville said on Sky Sports.
Pogba is tied to a contract with United through to 2021, with that agreement including a 12-month extension option.
