According to Manchester United's Norweigan manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, their world-record signing, Paul Pogba, will always be surrounded by rumours as long as the World Cup winning midfielder is a part of the Red Devils. Ole further added that he is ready to face Real Madrid's bid for Pogba in the January transfer window.

Paul Pogba is a Red Devil

With Zinedine Zidane being under immense pressure because of a string of poor results, Real Madrid's president, Florentino Perez is still hopeful that a move for Paul is still possible during the upcoming transfer window. In response to this, United's manager stated that he is not scared at all and is ready for any kind of a rumour that will float around Pogba and his future. He further added that Pogba is giving it his all and is committed to performing for Manchester United. Also, he is someone who is full of confidence when he is on the field. The star midfielder has missed quite a few games because of an ankle injury he suffered while on international duty and may not be fit to play against West Ham in a premier league outing on Septemeber 22. Another Frenchman, Anthony Martial will be out due to an injury while United's new signing, Daniel James, is still a doubt for the upcoming game.
