  • Paul Pogba's contract at Manchester United will not be extended, and the injured midfielder has now played his final game for the Premier League side
  • The club's record signing walked out of United's 4-0 humiliation at Anfield on Tuesday night with a calf injury that will keep him out for a month
  • Real Madrid and Juventus are reportedly monitoring Pogba’s situation at Old Trafford and will likely table an offer for the World Cup winner

Paul Pogba seemed to have played his last game for Manchester United after hobbling off injured in the 4-0 loss against Liverpool.

The French midfielder is expected to be out of action for up to a month with the calf injury which automatically rules him out for the remainder of the 2021/22 season.

According to a report via The Sun, Manchester United have no interest in extending Paul Pogba’s contract with the Red Devils when his current deal expires at the end of the season.

The Old Trafford hierarchy appears to be disappointed with Pogba’s second spell with the Red Devils after the club failed to mount any serious title challenge since splashing a club record fee of £89m for the midfielder in 2016.

The 29-year-old has won two trophies with Man United which includes the EFL Cup and Europa League in 2017 but has won nothing since.
