Paul Pogba Transfer News: Manchester United superstar absent from training

Paul Pogba Transfer News: Manchester United superstar is absent from pre-season training after taking permission from manager Ole Solskjaer.

Paul Pogba has once again fueled his transfer speculations, as he is reportedly absent from Manchester United’s pre-season training ahead of their tour in Australia in few days.

However, according to a report by the BBC, Paul Pogba is absent from the Manchester United’s training centre after taking a permission from the club manager Ole Solskjaer.

Meanwhile, rest of the squad except few, who had national duties are back at the Carrington training base. The reason given behind his absence by Manchester United is that he has been given time off after a hectic 16 months.

However, with no substantial reason given behind his delay in joining the Red Devils, it surely fuels his speculations of leaving Manchestaer United, as he could be negotiating with other clubs. Since his future has been the subject of intense speculation for months after his controversial statement.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid and Juventus are currently pursuing the services of Pogba, who is tied with Manchester United until 2021. So far, the Red Devils are not convinced with any of the offers made by either of the clubs.

However, Pogba being granted a leave is justified, since the player made 47 appearances alongside Marcus Rashford and David De Gea – highest in the Manchester United roster.

Further, the 26-year-old midfielder had greater international commitments over the 2019 close season than both of them, making three 90-minute appearances for France.

Nevertheless, Pogba’s future in the Premier league is still uncertain, hence, it is still remained to see what will happen in future. However, the official of Manchester United have already claimed that the French international will be sitting in Manchester United’s flight to Australia.
