The Paul Pogba saga is slowly going out of hands right now, with both the player and his agent coming out in public to announce the Frenchman's intention to leave Old Trafford. However, Sky Sports News' Kaveh Solhekol believes United are firmly in control of the situation. Speaking to the Transfer News Show, Solhekol had this to say-

We have to bear in mind Manchester United are still in control of this situation. He [Pogba] has basically 3 years on his contract. If United do not want to sell him, they will not sell him. He can do whatever he wants to do, he can throw his toys out of the pram.
But he has a Manchester United contract and United have an evaluation, even though they do not want to sell him. Every player has a price and that price is £150m. And if clubs can't pay that, he will have to remain a Manchester United player.

But can United get they way with Pogba? Only time will tell.
