Paul Pogba's Manchester United stance that could keep him at Old Trafford despite Real Madrid wish

Paul Pogba won't push Manchester United for an exit this summer as he waits on a move to Real Madrid.

The French midfielder had expected to leave Old Trafford to join Los Blancos but won't pressure United into letting him go.

But he's still confident a deal will happen and he'll be lining up at the Santiago Bernebau by the end of the transfer window.

Pogba believes he will eventually be a Real Madrid player, even if it doesn't happen in this window, and the club themselves are understood to be relaxed about a deal.

They are also waiting on news about Neymar and Marca report they are unwilling to pay over the odds for either player but are confident of sealing deals.

Pogba started against Chelsea for United in their 4-0 win but the performance and result haven't convinced him to stick around.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's promise to build the team around him and play to his strengths have also not changed his mind on leaving.

Mino Raiola, Pogba's agent, is set to return to Old Trafford for more talks in a bid to convince them to allow his client to leave the club.

A new meeting is expected next week and the report states it will be to make Pogba's desire to leave the club clear.
