Paul Pogba Will 'No Longer Be A Man United Player' At End Of The Season, One Club 'Excluded' As Potential Destination

Paul Pogba will “no longer” be a Manchester United player this summer and he is “motivated to play for ambitious trophies” rather than waste time on “minor competitions.”

That is according to Pogba’s personal trainer, who has tipped the Frenchman to make his sensational exit from Old Trafford at the end of the season.

Pogba’s current deal will expire in the summer and he is free to speak with clubs outside of England and sign a pre-contract agreement ahead of a potential move.

The 28-year-old French midfielder has been widely linked with Juventus, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, despite United’s efforts to push for a contract renewal.

According to Sport Witness, Pogba’s personal trainer spoke with CalcioMercato and has claimed that his client is “motivated” to win big trophies away from United.

Coach Maddy told the Italian publication: “Regarding Pogba, at the end of June he will no longer be a Manchester United player.

“I think it is right for him to look elsewhere, perhaps Manchester also wants to renew themselves and the most sensible thing is to separate.

“The time will come to change and try new challenges, new emotions, new environments for both Pogba and Manchester, to try something different and maybe they will both be happy.

“Right now, I think he’s enjoying himself, they have a good team, especially since Ronaldo decided to return.

“The problem is that the results don’t come. A top player doesn’t waste his time on minor competitions, he wants to be motivated to play for ambitious trophies.”

Pogba, who initially walked away from United on a free transfer to Juventus in 2012, could make a return to Turin for a second spell.

According to il BiancoNero, Coach Maddy says the 2018 World Cup winner still has positive relations with the Old Lady.

He added that PSG need a “midfielder like him,” but he ruled out Madrid as a potential destination after the departure of Zinedine Zidane.

“Yes, yes. Paul can return to Juve, he has good relations with the Bianconeri but he could also be at PSG,” Coach Maddy added.

“I think PSG needs a midfielder like him and he could go and play in France.

“At Real Madrid, I would exclude him because there is no longer Zidane, he would have gone only in that case. Juve or PSG at the moment, but you never know what can happen, we’ll see.”
