Paul Pogba has informed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer he wants to leave Manchester United.

The pair held heart-to-heart talks after United were eliminated from the Champions League on Wednesday, per the Daily Mail.

And Pogba made it know that he would prefer to leave Old Trafford as soon as January.

The Frenchman maintains respect for Solskjaer and the talks were reportedly 'honest and forthright'.

The news comes after Pogba's agent, Mino Raiola, stated this week that his client was 'unhappy' at United and wanted to leave.

Juve are interested in taking the World Cup winner back to Turin, but much will depend on United's demands.

Like a lot of clubs, the Old Lady are struggling financially due to the coronavirus pandemic.

United were looking to recoup most of the £89m they paid Juve to sign Pogba in 2016.
