Man Utd will trigger Pogba option - but strictly to sell him

Manchester United are prepared to trigger Paul Pogba's 12 month option - but only to sell him.

The Sun says the 27-year-old World Cup winner's Old Trafford future is over.

Despite suggestions that a peace deal is being made, both sides want a splitting of the ways.

Offers around £100m would see United move quickly to get a deal done for a player whose contract is up next summer.

The Red Devils have the option of triggering a one-year extension but that would be only to protect the value of their record signing.

Real Madrid and Juventus are still interested in midfielder Pog and believe they can get the most out of his talent.
