Breaking news: Ralf Ragnick finally makes decision on Paul pogba , as Manchester United receives a boost to their squad ,is pogba staying ?
Manchester United manager Ralf
Rangnick has confirmed that he’ll still
play Paul Pogba, even if the midfielder
is pushing for a move away from the
club next season.
The France international’s contract at
the Old Trafford side is set to expire at
the end of the season, which means
he can already speak to other clubs
above a free transfer in the summer.
With no fresh reports of a breakthrough
in negotiations, most Man Utd fans
have resigned themselves to the fact
that Pogba will leave the club in six
months time.
However, while Rangnick certainly
acknowledged that point, he also pointed
out that it wasn’t enough of a reason
for the German manager to overlook
Pogba for the rest of the season.
’
Why shouldn’t I play Pogba?’
“Yes of course,” Rangnick replied
when asked if there was any point
in playing Pogba even though he knows
he wants to leave.
“I also played Nemanja Matic in
the last games and his contract is
also expiring. By the way, my contract
as a manager is also expiring in
the summer. For us we have the
same goal. We have the same
ambition to be as successful as
we can possibly be in the next three
or four months.
“For me it's not a question if a player
has an expiring contract, the question
is how much does he still want to
be a part of this group, how much
does he still feel emotionally and
physically on board.
“As long as this is the case, why
shouldn't Paul Pogba now after two
and half months of injury, fully fit again
now and he also wants to show
up, he wants to show the fans of
Manchester United, the board, the
whole world what kind of player he
can be and even if it's only to show
enough for a new contract elsewhere,
he will be highly motivated to do that
and why should I then not play him?
“But as I said, there is a difference
of how players deal with their current
situation. How do they handle that?
If they handle that in a professional
way, an ambitious way, of course I
will play players although they have
a contract expiring in the summer.”
