Solskjaer clears the air

Manchester United v Watford FC - Premier League

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has cleared the air regarding Pogba’s comments on his dream of playing under Zidane. The Frenchman has been linked with a move to Real Madrid but Solskjaer doesn’t seem to be too bothered about it.

The Norwegian praised his midfielder as a polite person and, as a result, answered to question about Zinedine Zidane, who is a great inspiration for many young footballers in the world.

“Paul is a very nice and polite man who then answered a general question on Zidane, who is an icon in France, a fantastic manager and used to be a fantastic player and he’s just politely answered that question.”

Ole also revealed that Pogba is happy at Old Trafford.

“But Paul’s happy here, he’s going be a big part here and you like to build your team round him and that hasn’t changed at all.”
