Solskjaer recently claimed that he has received no bid so far for any of his players including Paul Pogba. He praised the mid-fielder and beamed that he had a heart of gold and a victim of a media agenda. The Norwegian added that they were Manchester United and were under no pressure to sell. However, he refused to acknowledge Pogba’s own admission of wanting to leave United.
Mino Raiola, Pogba’s agent, has claimed that he is in the middle of engineering a transfer and everyone is aware of Pogba’s desire to leave. Pogba himself almost missed out on United’s pre-season tour of Australasia.
Pogba wants silverware

Paul Pogba desires to become a Ballon D’or contender. He wants to play and win the Champions League along with other honors. The Frenchman does not see United providing him that. Not when United continue to struggle to even play regular Champions League football.
Real Madrid may have hit a slump last year. However, before that, the Spanish side had won 3 champions league on the trot. With the spending spree Real have indulged in this summer, it is very likely that they will approach this campaign with renewed vigour.
Juventues on the other hand are almost guaranteed to end the season with the Italian league. With the Italian side looking to bolster their side with fresh talent, a champions league challenge looks very promising. With both clubs reportedly interested in Paul Pogba, the French International will not mind either of the two. Although Pogba seems to favour Real Madrid over Juventus.
It will be interesting to see if Manchester United manage to hold on to their most expensive signing ever.
