Manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, has insisted Paul Pogba will remain at Manchester United next season.

The France international has been constantly linked with a move away from Old Trafford ever since he returned from Juventus in 2016.

Pogba is said to be unhappy at United because of their failure to challenge for the Premier League title and eager to leave the club at the earliest opportunity.

His agent, Mino Raiola, said last month that the midfielder is only committed to the club until this summer, while Real Madrid and Juve are said to be interested in signing the 26-year-old.

Solskjaer said this week, however, that he expects the World Cup winner to be back working with his team-mates next week.

The Norwegian reiterated on Thursday that the star player is going nowhere in the next transfer window as he remains contracted to United until 2022. 

“Paul’s our player. He has two years left on his contract, a year plus the option of another,” Solskjaer said after his side’s 5-0 win over LASK in the first leg of their Europa League last-16 tie. 

“You can expect Paul to be here [next season], yeah.”

United’s form has improved in recent weeks despite the absence of their most expensive signing.
