Pogba could be next United captain - Solskjaer

PERTH, Australia -- Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed Paul Pogba is under consideration to become Manchester United's next captain despite the midfielder saying he wants to quit the club.

Solskjaer is looking for a new skipper after the departure of Antonio Valencia at the end of season. Ashley Young and Juan Mata wore the armband during the 2-0 win over Perth Glory on Saturday but the United boss said Pogba, who has publicly claimed he is looking for a "new challenge" this summer, would be in the frame when a final decision is made ahead of the new season.
