Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba 'not pushing for January exit'

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba is reportedly unlikely to leave Old Trafford during the January transfer window.

Earlier this year, the 26-year-old expressed a desire to take on a new challenge, which has naturally resulted in constant speculation regarding the World Cup winner's future.

Real Madrid remain as a possible destination for the France international, who is said to be keen to work under compatriot Zinedine Zidane.

However, according to Goal.com, Pogba does not intend on trying to force a move to another club at the midway point of the campaign.

The report adds that United are also against a sale at the beginning of 2020, leaving it likely that no transfer will be completed until the summer.

While Pogba effectively has two-and-a-half years left on his contract, it has been suggested that the club-record signing will not entertain penning fresh terms.
