Zlatan Ibrahimovic offers advice to United on Paul Pogba transfer

Former Manchester United forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic has urged the club to allow wantaway midfielder Paul Pogba to leave this summer. Juventus and Real Madrid remain interested in the France International, who has also indicated his desire to leave Old Trafford. United are yet to receive any official bids for the player and will not entertain any bids if they are made after the Premier League transfer deadline on August 8. In an interview with BBC Sport , Ibrahimovic said the Premier League giants should allow Pogba to leave if he no longer wants to be there. "I think if he doesn't want to stay, it makes no sense to keep him," said the Swedish striker, who played alongside Pogba at United from 2016-18. "You let him go and if he wants to be somewhere else, that is where you let him go to. (You have to) use the situation and bring in somebody who wants to stay. The dressing is more (about) the players' respect for each other. They're professionals and understand each other's situation. Who worries more is the club and the management. “You don't want a player in your club or in your team that doesn't want to stay because then you know he will not give 100 or 200 per cent, or he does that and still doesn't want to stay.It's a tricky situation and the best is what is the best for the club. That is what you have to look at."
