Paul Pogba has revealed that he wanted to leave Manchester United in 2019 because his heart wasn't in it - but he was blocked from leaving.

The Frenchman eventually left Old Trafford on a free in the summer of 2022, six years after he had returned for a then-world record £89million fee.

Pogba believes that the 2018-19 season when he was United's top scorer was his best at the club, but he wanted to go despite the positivity surrounding Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's new regime after Jose Mourinho's December 2018 exit.
