Paul Pogba's relationship with Manchester United deteriorated once again in early December after his agent, Mino Raiola, insisted his time at Old Trafford was 'over' and demanded the club sell him this summer or risk losing him for nothing.
Many perceived it as the final straw in Pogba's woeful return to the club that has been laced with disappointment ever since they forked out a then-world-record £89million fee in 2016.
