Former Manchester United hero Paul Ince urges club to offload Paul Pogba

Pogba’s future at our club has been a subject of intense transfer speculation since last summer, when he tried to force through a move to Real Madrid. (h/t Express)
The 27-year-old has hardly featured this season due to an ankle problem, that needed an ankle surgery. Till date, Pogba has made just 8 appearances across all competitions in 2019/20.
In the meantime, Manchester United signed Bruno Fernandes in the January transfer window. And the Portuguese international has made an immediate impact at the club. The 25-year-old has scored 3 goals and assisted 4 more in 9 matches.
And owing to the impact that he has made at Old Trafford, Paul Ince is of the opinion that Manchester United would be better off selling Pogba. (h/t Express)
“Perhaps if Fernandes hadn’t come in and done as well as he has done, maybe Ole might try and keep Pogba. But now, he might be thinking if I can get the right money for Pogba, then I can let him go.
“Ultimately, he’s a distraction and his behaviour impacts and damages the rest of the team.”

Heading into the summer window, the Frenchman’s future will once again be a hot topic of discussion.
