United boss Solskjaer believes Pogba will sign new Manchester United deal and stay

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has dropped a hint that Paul Pogba will sign a new contract.

With the Old Trafford hierarchy set to open talks with Pogba in the coming weeks about committing himself to the club beyond 2021, the hope at the club is that it will end all debate about him being bound for Real Madrid.

Solskjaer said: “What Paul said, was said before. Since coming back from injury has been a delight.

“He has worked really hard, he is happy and he is playing well. We are going to see the best of Paul in the next couple of seasons, I'm sure.

“And I'm looking forward to seeing him grow with this team.

“He will have to be one of the leaders, one of the main figures, because he is just coming to his peak time as a footballer at 27.

“I am really looking forward to working with him."
