Paul Pogba looks to be heading ever closer to the exit door at Manchester United after agent Mino Raiola 'cancelled a meeting with the club over a new deal' for the midfielder.
The Frenchman, who was named in the PFA Team of the Year, is a hugely influential member of the club's dressing room but continues to flirt with a move to Real Madrid.
The decision by Raiola to cancel a meeting, according to the Sun, is due to Pogba's determination to secure a move away from Old Trafford this summer.
The ยฃ89million midfielder is a huge personality off the pitch but he is struggling to assert himself in big games having been kept quiet in Wednesday's 2-0 defeat at home to Manchester City.
According to the report, United's players 'fear Solskjaer cannot handle Pogba's ego' as defeat to city rivals made it seven defeats in nine games.
Pogba has two years to run on his current contract and United may feel they are under no immediate pressure to cash in on him.

If this is true the I think someone is close to a Madrid deal cuz raiola doesnโt just cancel meetings anyway a move away will be better for both parties united can atleast focus on other players in that midfield position like mctominay and also bring in some more talents atleast there will be peace in that dressing room cuz of all the antics and mischief pogba brings with him, United needs a serene environment to operate so they can bring back their glory days pogba is more of a distraction than a solution. Mourinho spotted its but was sacked. I wish ole all the best next season

Manu should replace him with a player that can move the ball faster and willing to run up and down just what roy keane used to do for manu. At times i just see hom delaying play too long on the ball whme team mates are already running i to space he looses the ball then its a problem

United is becoming a laughing stock nowadays because of his ego..At the start of season he had a fight with jose and didn't gave his best to team and that made jose sacked..After he sacked he played like hell to prove jose is the problem,then came madrid rumours..He now again started to play badly..I don't know why Ole and United cheifs want him to stay.. If he stays and plays with this mind, next season will be a disaster..our Club is bigger than any player..Just show him the door...I remember when he didn't get game time during fergie time he left to juventus and then when we go for him after 3 years he said he want to leave to play in his home team..this season he wanted to move to juve again but they don't have enough funds to get him back, then Jan transfer window he wanted barca move,now madrid..Even if he Moves to Madrid after 2 years he will show them his true character and leave for PSG may be..Let him leave..

Man UTD should start with working on a replacement for pogba, it seems likely that he will leave man UTD this summer, he thinks he is important and that man UTD needs him badly, man UTD has talented players and they will get a lot of money if they sell pogba and they can sign a world class player better than pogba, good luck to pogba and we hope he makes a right decision.

The best thing for ManU & Pogba is to let Pogba go where his heart is than have a player whose heart is somewhere else. ManU should make sure they recoup what they put in. ManU should not look for stars. Stars can be made. What is required is identify the right player with the spirit of wanting to win & mould them into a ManU player

Am Happy to hear this, at least we can have a piece of mind... He is doing nothing, and I don't think Pogba is someone that can't be replace.. Lot of players can do more than what he is doing... all the best Pogba

The English media are being unfair to this guy. Too much stuff is being written about him that will not be done if he were English. Whether Paul chooses to stay or leave, its his choice and you have to at least give him some credit especially for man utd's form immediately after mourinho's sack. Truth is, the quality in front of him is suspect. Look at rashford. Nobodys talking about how awful he has been in man utd's recent games. Same for Lingard and lukaku. That's how they brought the news that Barca wanted to bid ยฃ100m for rashford, a player who can't boast of 20 goals a season. Pogba has his fault no doubt, but at least give him some credit. If you watch recently, he had tuned down on his crazy hairstyles and media presence but you guys just won't let him be
