Jose Mourinho tells Manchester United star Paul Pogba to hand in transfer request in stunning bust-up
Mourinho was said to be furious at the comments after extending an olive branch to the midfielder and he believes Pogba threw the goodwill back in his face, according to the Sun.
The pair are said to have clashed with Mourinho telling Pogba if he wanted to quit the club ‘again’ he should hand in a transfer request.
Mourinho was clearly referencing Pogba’s decision to leave United in 2012 for Juventus when he felt he wasn’t given enough playing time by Sir Alex Ferguson.
The pair’s relationship is now said to be at its lowest since Pogba returned to the club and the Frenchman is even said to have told Mourinho to communicate to him through his agent Mino Raiola.
Mourinho blames Raiola for much of the speculation surrounding Pogba and would like the midfielder to sack his agent.
Pogba’s frayed relationship with Mourinho extends back to last February when he was dropped for a clash against Sevilla in the Champions League.
Mourinho had the perfect chance to heal his relationship with Pogba after his fantastic performances for France in the World Cup but instead took a dig at the midfielder, suggesting he needs to do more to produce such displays at Old Trafford.
United will not sell Pogba, regardless of whether he hands in a transfer request.
