Paul Pogba could be out of Premier League club Manchester United as reports from England claim the club chiefs are desperate for the player’s exit in January, SunSport reports.
It was gathered that some top officials at the club are fed up with the player’s attitude and that of his agent who claimed that his client’s time at the club is over.
Hours before their crucial Champions League cracker against German side RB Leipzig, super-agent Mino Raiola had stated that the best option for Pogba is to leave the club.
The statement seems to disrupt Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s plans and the Red Devils eventually crashed out of the tournament after they lost 3-2.
United have ignored the agent’s comments as they refuse to be bullied, however, reports from the team claim top officials are ready to let their £89million club-record signing go.
As much as they are desperate to get their money back, the Premier League club will have to drop their asking price to as low as £50million to find a buyer for the French World Cup winner.

The 27-year-old has fallen down the pecking order under Solskjaer since the arrival of Portuguese sensation Bruno Fernandes on the January transfer deadline day.
Having got rid of Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez back then, Solskjaer was prepared to let Pogba go too — as long as he got the money to reinvest in his squad.
Now Pogba has become an unwanted sideshow that is starting to affect the Norwegian’s running of the team, and United manager also cautioned the agent. Solskjaer said:
"As soon as Paul's agent realises this is a team sport and we work together, the better. That's probably maybe the last thing I say on that. I don't want to spend energy on that."
Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that Spanish midfielder Lucas Vazquez has reportedly emerged top transfer target for Manchester United when the January transfer window opens.
The 29-year-old's current deal with Real Madrid expires next summer and he is permitted to start talking to other clubs as from next month.
He has made 12 appearances across competitions for Los Blancos this campaign with just one assist credited to him.
