Paul Pogba's agent Mino Raiola officially confirms his time is over at Man Utd

Mino Raiola has officially confirmed Paul Pogba's time is over at Manchester United.

The super agent, who was behind Pogba's £89million move to Old Trafford from Juventus in 2016, told Tuttosport: "I can say that it's over for Paul Pogba at Manchester United."

He added: "Paul is unhappy. He is no longer able to express himself as he would like and as expected of him. He has to change teams; he has to change the air.

"He has a contract that will expire in a year and a half, but I think the best solution for the parties is to sell him in the next market."

Raiola confirmed the World Cup winner will be looking to leave Manchester United in the January transfer window.

However, he failed to confirm his most likely destination, although Real Madrid and Juventus have long been linked with a move for the Frenchman.

Pogba has made 13 appearances in all competitions for the Red Devils this season, but admitted earlier in the campaign he is struggling at the club.

Speaking ahead of the international break, the 27-year-old told RTL France: "This is a period that I haven't previously experienced in my career, as I've been used to playing all the time and getting into my rhythm, so that's suddenly changed.

"I feel I'm gradually getting back into it now. I'm rediscovering my form. That's the sort of performance that I need to produce and I need to do so consistently.

"[The international break] it's like a window that opens up. It's a breath of fresh air when you come here. We have a truly fantastic squad. When we come here, we're all happy.

"We're all pleased to see one another. We really enjoy ourselves on the pitch. That doesn't mean we don't enjoy ourselves at club level, but it's not the same here. We're a real family, and we have so much fun when we come here."
