Paul Pogba criticised 'unbelievable' Manchester United in furious FaceTime call with agent

Paul Pogba criticised Manchester United for talking to agent Mino Raiola instead of him about the possibility of signing a new contract at Old Trafford.

Pogba, 29, will United for free this summer after the expiration of his contract on June 30. The Manchester Evening News understands Pogba is set to join Juventus - where he spent four years before re-signing for United - and the midfielder has released a documentary with Amazon Prime ahead of a return to Turin.

In footage from last summer Pogba criticises United for their handling of negotiations over a possible new deal. The late Mino Raiola was Pogba's representative and a conversation between the pair is revealed at the beginning of episode four of the new series named 'The Pogmentary'.

"If they want you to stay, they can't make this kind of offer," Raiola says on the phone with Pogba. "I'll make them understand that if they really want you to stay, if they want to build something with you, this time, they have to do something different. They have to put the money on the table."

Pogba replies: "They're bluffing. How can you tell a player you really want him and offer nothing - unbelievable. You can offer a contract that says 'we want you, we don't want you to leave, we'll do everything to keep you'. Mino shouldn't have to tell me that. The club has to do that. The club has to talk to the player. "
