Paul Pogba makes U-turn on signing new Man United deal after forging partnership with Bruno Fernandes and being encouraged by improvement under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Paul Pogba is willing to make a dramatic U-turn by opening talks over a new contract at Manchester United.

Pogba has less than a year left on his current deal — although United can extend it by a further 12 months — and manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said on Wednesday that he hopes the Frenchman will stay even longer.

United have yet to approach Pogba over a new contract but are likely to begin discussions with his representatives at the end of the season.
