Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is confident Paul Pogba will stay at Manchester United, despite the constant speculation over his future.
The 26-year-old has been strongly linked with Real Madrid and Juventus throughout the summer and has fuelled the speculation with series of comments, together with remarks from his agent and brother, that have raised doubts on his future.
After starring with two assists in the 4-0 win over Chelsea in United’s Premier League opener, Pogba swirled the rumour mill again by admitting “there’s always that question mark” about his future.
But, when those comments were put to him ahead of Monday’s trip to Wolves, Solskjaer said: “You always put question marks around Paul.
“I don’t think it’s odd saying enjoy playing, I have fun with my team-mates, I enjoy what I’m doing, I love my job and enjoy the game.
“Of course, that sentence with the question mark about him, there’s always question marks about Paul.
“There’s not one press conference that I’ve not answered a question about Paul Pogba. Eighty per cent of what he said was that he enjoyed that game and his time here.”
Asked about the other 20 per cent, Solskjaer said: “That’s the question mark. Is he questioning you or are you putting question marks on him? I’ve got absolutely no concerns on Paul.”
Links to Real Madrid persisted in recent weeks, with the European transfer window set to close on September 2, and Mathias Pogba this week claimed his brother still wants to leave Old Trafford.
But, pushed on whether Pogba will definitely be a United player when the European transfer window shuts on September 2, Solskjaer said: “Unless some… for me, yeah, he’s going to stay.”
