Man Utd boss Solskjaer: Of course Pogba contract talks ongoing

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is pushing the board to do what they can to secure Paul Pogba to a new deal.

Pogba returned from a ten-game injury absence to score the winner against AC Milan on Thursday night and send Manchester United into the Europa League quarter-finals.

French World Cup winner Pogba has only one year left on his deal and boss Solskjaer said: “Of course we've got discussions and talks."

United do not want to let him go even if there is a bid after what he showed when he came on as a half-time substitute in the San Siro — and scored the game's only goal three minutes later.

Solskjaer said: “When you see Paul playing like he did against Milan, when you see him come back training, it shows how much he cares for us and how much he enjoys playing and how much we can benefit from having him here."
