Man United coach, Old Gunner Solksjaer has slammed Real Madrid's pursuit of star player Paul Pogba, claiming they will fail again if they decide to keep pursuing Paul Pogba either in January or next summer.
Pogba has been linked for a long time with a move to Real Madrid, with coach Zinedine Zidane keen on linking up with his fellow frenchman and even Pogba stating he would love a new challenge.
Zinedine Zidane is under pressure at the Bernabéu because of poor results, rather than his failure to sign his main transfer target in the summer, though Real Madrid’s president, Florentino Pérez, still appears to believe a move is possible later in the season.
But Manchester United who still have a two year contract with Pogba held for and rejected all advances from Madrid.

Manchester United want to begin talks with Pogba's agent on a new 500,000 pounds per week deal, a huge improvement on his current 295,000 pounds per week deal, and Solksjaer has reiterated that Paul is going no where.
“I don’t listen to the president of Real Madrid,” Solskjær said. “I am not worried now and I will never be worried in the future about Paul staying here. If it all kicks off again in January, there will be no worries then either. If we have to live with the speculation again, then we will handle it like we did in the summer.
Paul is going nowhere, he is working hard and is totally committed to Manchester United. He is one of our big characters, someone who will walk out on to any pitch and be full of confidence. That’s what I look for in a United player. You need a big personality to play for this club.”
