France International Paul Pogba has once again fuelled speculation of him leaving Manchester United amid the ongoing tense relationship with his manager Jose Mourinho. Pogba who is on international duty with France to play in the UEFA Nations league was interviewed by Sky Sports Germany and was asked about his links with Barcelona.
"There was a lot of talk, but it was just like that, I'm under contract in Manchester," Pogba said. "My future is currently in Manchester, I still have a contract, I'm playing there at the moment, but who knows what will happen in the next few months." These comments did not come as a surprise to many Manchester United supporters who have seen the midfielder questioning his club future many times in recent months.

Pogba is reportedly at loggerheads with his manager Jose Mourinho over the team’s style of play and his position in the team and when he was questioned about his relationship with Mourinho, he did nothing to add fuel to the fire. "We have a pure coach-player relationship, that's right.”One thing I can assure you: I will always give 100 percent, no matter which coach I always give everything for United - I cannot say more."
