Paul Pogba's contract with United runs until 2022. The Red Devils have already made him a renewal offer, but have not yet received a reply from the midfielder.
Pogba's plan is to remain silent until his contract expires in June next year. He will say nothing about his future until then.
At Manchester United, this silence is a headache for the club. They have a dilemma with Pogba, according to 'The Sun'. The British newspaper claims that United would have to pay Pogba around 15 million even if he left this summer.
That sum of money would be for the remaining year of Pogba's contract. At the moment, they have not received any offer, although PSG are reportedly interested in his services.
So, the headache is this: United would have to pay him the cash right now for the remaining year of his contract. The other option is to keep him in the squad, but then, should he eventually decline to renew with United, the team would see him leave for free next year.
Solskjaer is counting on him for the long term and has told the club that. He has only asked that, whatever decision is taken, it be passed on quickly. He wants to know as soon as possible which players he will have for the 2021-22 season.
