In an interview, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has revealed that representatives from both sides are in talks over a new deal for Pogba. The Norwegian also added that he doesn’t know every detail but hopes that he can keep working together with the 28-year-old.
“Talks are ongoing between Paul’s representatives and the club representatives. All the dialogue I’ve had with Paul is that he’s looking forward to the season. There’s always speculation about Paul, the talks between the club and Paul’s representatives, I don’t know every detail of every single one of them. I’ve not got anything to say really about that,” Solskjaer said, reported ESPN.
“There’s always clubs being interested and of course we’ve seen Paul at his best and Paul knows what we feel about it and I’ve enjoyed my time working with him and hopefully we can work together.”
