Ole Gunnar Solskjaer reveals talks are ongoing at Manchester United over Paul Pogba's new contract

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says talks are continuing with Paul Pogba's camp to persuade the Frenchman to sign a new contract at Manchester United while he tries to keep the player happy on the pitch.

Pogba has just over 10 months left on his £290,000-a-week deal before he can walk away from Old Trafford as a free agent for the second time.

United are desperate for their record £89million signing to agree new terms, but so far Pogba and his agent Mino Raiola have shown little inclination to sign.
