#4 Solskjaer has given Pogba permission to miss training
Manchester United's preseason training had started this week, but perhaps the biggest question in everyone's mind revolved around the absence of Paul Pogba. The Frenchman had already set the tabloids on fire after openly announcing his desire to leave Manchester United. As such, his failure to report for pre-season training was seen as an open act of defiance. However, it now appears that Pogba might have been well within his limits after all.
The BBC reports that Pogba has Solskjaer's permission to miss training, as he takes a deserved rest after a hectic 1 month. The Frenchman is coming off a rigorous season, and he was also heavily involved in France's World Cup-winning campaign last season. As such, Pogba is taking a little more time to recuperate and get ready for the next season.
The word inside the United camp is that the Frenchman will be directly on a flight to Australia and will meet up with his United teammates there.
