The waters are stirred at Old Trafford. It was already seen in the preview of this weekend’s game against Norwich. Local fans came together to protest the situation the team is going through. Nothing changed later inside the stadium. Neither Cristiano’s goals nor the victory brought calm. One of the worst unemployed yesterday was Paul Pogba. So much so that his future is doomed. And it will be a long way from Manchester.
The French midfielder is making headlines in England after making inappropriate gestures towards the stands at Old Trafford. Pogba was booed when he was substituted (minute 73 by Juan Mata) and instead of holding back, he entered the rag. He covered his ears and a few words came out of his mouth before walking away from the crowd.
This attitude has not gone unnoticed in England, where they already see a confirmed divorce. The country’s press affirms that his departure is immediate, as soon as the season is over. He could even be steered away from continuing those kinds of confrontations into the stands. After years of comings and goings, of flirting with other clubs, there is no turning back.
A few days ago he himself stated that he was not satisfied. “I have to be honest, I am not satisfied with the last five seasons, but I really am not. This year is already dead, we will not win anything again. I want to win trophies, either with Manchester or with another team.”
Discard for Ten Hag

Everything indicates that he had already agreed on some conditions, among which would be the departure of Pogba and Cristiano. The Portuguese matter could change after his performance against Norwich. The Frenchman, on the other hand, already has Mino Raiola pulling his strings: among the candidates are PSG (there was talk of a meeting with Leonardo), Juventus…
