Manchester United may have added Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Daniel James so far, but their most important job will be keeping Paul Pogba at the club. The 26-year-old midfielder was easily amongst the club’s best players last season, contributing to 27 goals in all competitions.
It shows the immense impact that the 2018 World Cup winner had, and exactly why the Red Devils need to keep him. That seems to be manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s top priority as well, with the former Red Devil trying to build the new Manchester United around the club record’s creative talents.
While that might be easier said than done, Solskjaer is certainly up to the task. “Paul is a fantastic player, a fantastic human being, always been a great professional,” Solskjaer revealed in an interview with the Guardian. “I’ve had a great relationship with him. Of course, I had him in the reserves a few years back.
"And I said: ‘If he’s in your squad, you’d build a team around him’ – and, of course, I haven’t changed that much since then, so I would say the same now. We know Paul has been criticised by a few, but he’s loved loads more.”
