Former Manchester United midfielder, Paul Ince, is convinced that Paul Pogba will leave the club this summer.
Pogba returned to Old Trafford two years ago for a record £89million, but he is becoming increasingly disillusioned at playing as a deep-lying midfielder according to reports in France.
L’Equipe claims the player “regrets” returning to the club.
Ince feels Pogba may leave after this season, if Mourinho refuses to play him in a more attacking midfield role.
“If what’s being said about Pogba is true, that he regrets joining United, then I’d be disappointed, but not surprised.
“I can understand why Pogba might feel irritated with the position Mourinho currently has him playing in.
“He likes to roam, he likes to attack. He wasn’t signed to be a holding midfield player and that’s clearly not what he enjoys or is best at. So why does he insist on playing him there?
“[January-signing forward] Alexis Sanchez wants to be on the ball and wants to be part of the action. You can’t have both him and Pogba roaming across the pitch, because then you’ll lose the shape of your team.
“The signals that are coming from Pogba is that he’s not happy and if he doesn’t feel like he fits in, then I could see him leaving in the summer.
“He’s one of the best players in the world and deserves to be played in his right position where he can show that off and express himself,” Ince said.
