Former Manchester United midfielder Kleberson says that the Premier League outfit should sell Paul Pogba ahead of the new campaign.

Kleberson has claimed that 'it is the right time' for Manchester United to sell midfielder Paul Pogba.

The France international is being heavily linked with a switch to Real Madrid or Juventus after revealing that he wants a new challenge, a stance which has been backed by representative Mino Raiola.

United are said to be against a sale unless they receive their £150m valuation but former player Kleberson feels that the Premier League outfit should cash in on the World Cup winner.

The Brazilian is quoted by talkSPORT as saying: "It is the right move to sell Paul Pogba, he's a great player and his talent is unbelievable, but his style is a little bit different, and not particularly what Man United need.

"He could use this opportunity now to leave and get a fresh start, play in a different atmosphere, and embrace a new challenge. Sometimes it's hard to come to Manchester United and adapt to play a particular style. It doesn't mean he's not a good player with great quality."

Kleberson, who cost United a fee of £6.5m, made 30 appearances for United between 2003 and 2005.
