United legend has words of wisdom for Pogba

Cape Town - Manchester United legend Bryan Robson has urged Paul Pogba to continue to work hard for the club despite the uncertainty over his future.

Three years after being brought back to Old Trafford in what was a world-record deal, the 26-year-old has openly admitted that he is ready for ‘a new challenge somewhere else’.

Pogba said there was ‘no need’ to speak about his situation after United opened their pre-season tour of Australia with a 2-0 win against Perth Glory on Saturday but talk continues of a move to former club Juventus or Real Madrid.

Robson knows a thing or two about being a star with the Red Devils when things are not going so well and has also been in the unique position of attending most of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s training sessions in Perth.

"There is a lot of speculation in the media about Paul," the former midfielder said.

"He is a top player.

"You are contracted to Man United, (so you have to) get your head down, do your pre-season, which, from what I have seen in the training sessions he has done and if something happens and the club want it to happen, or if it doesn’t, you have to get on.

"You are contracted to Manchester United. You have to give everything for that club, that team and the fans."
