Pogba makes big decision about his future at Man United after Mourinho's sacking

- Paul Pogba will not leave Old Trafford in January after Mourinho was sacked

- The French midfielder was lining up a loan move when the January window opens

- The 25-year-old and Mourinho were at loggerheads over several disagreements

Manchester United star Paul Pogba has changed plans about leaving Old Trafford after Jose Mourinho's sacking.

The France international, who was signed for a club record fee of £89million was considering a loan move out of United in the January transfer window.

It is understood that the Frenchman has instructed his agent Mino Raiola to find him a new club in the summer if Mourinho was still in charge.

The 25-year-old has been dropped in the last three Premier League games including the 3-1 bashing at the hands of their bitter rival Liverpool.

It was the final straw for Pogba who was hardly in speaking terms with Mourinho since he beginning of the summer.

Pogba usually criticized Mourinho's defensive tactics and also felt he was being made the scapegoat for everything that was going wrong.

The Portuguese gaffer also called him a virus affecting other players after United's 2-2 draw at Southampton.

Pogba left United for Juventus in 2012 over a contract dispute between his agent and former boss Sir Alex Ferguson.

But after his successful spell with Juventus where he won four Serie A titles, he returned to Old Trafford after much persuasion from Mourinho.

Pogba finished his first season lifting the Europa League title with the Red Devils where he was among the scorers in the 2-0 Europa League final win over Ajax.

But both manager and player's relationship began to have cracks in January when Pogba was substituted in the away defeat to Tottenham for failing to adhere to instructions.

He was then dropped in the following match against Huddersfield and was also subbed during the defeat at Newcastle.

Pogba was upset after Mourinho said it was time he started playing like that for United following his World Cup exploits with France.

Thereafter, Pogba was handed the captain's arm-band in their first Premier League win against Leicester City at Old Trafford.

But the Frenchman hinted at the cracks in his relationship with Mourinho when he said: “There are things, and there are things that I cannot say, otherwise I will get fined,"

The following month Mourinho authoritatively said Pogba will never captain the club again.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng had earlier reported that reported that Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has reacted negatively to the sacking of their manager Jose Mourinho.

The 25-year-old posted an image of himself on his Instagram and Twitter accounts with a smug look on his face with a description saying: Caption this!

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari.
