Tottenham boss Mourinho dismisses criticism from Man Utd midfielder Pogba: I couldn't care less

Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho says he "couldn't care less" about Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba's criticism of his management.

Pogba said current boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer "wouldn't go against the players" like former manager Mourinho.

Pogba re-joined United in 2016 for a then-world record £89m when Mourinho was manager at the Old Trafford club.

But the pair fell out by the time Mourinho was sacked in December 2018.

"Once I had a great relationship with Mourinho," Pogba told Sky Sports.

"Everybody saw that and the next day you don't know what happened."

The 28-year-old France international added: "That's the strange thing I had with Mourinho and I cannot explain to you because even I don't know."

Responding to Pogba's comments after Spurs' 2-2 Premier League draw with Everton on Friday, Mourinho told Sky Sports: "I would like to say that I couldn't care less with what he says.

"I am not interested at all."
