Pogba: Solskjaer has returned freedom to Man Utd lost under Mourinho

Paul Pogba says Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, fresh from signing a three-year contract at Manchester United, has returned the “freedom” to the club lost during the reign of previous managers.

Having seen their interim coach deliver an upturn in fortune after being appointed as successor to Jose Mourinho, the Red Devils have handed the permanent position to the Norwegian.

That move has been welcomed by many, with Solskjaer considered to have earned the right to guide a club he represented with such distinction during his playing days towards a brighter future.
