Manchester United, on Tuesday, announced that Paul Pogba will leave the club at the end of June, upon the expiry of his contract.
The Premier League club made this known via a statement published on its website on Wednesday.
The Frenchman has enjoyed a long association with United, having joined the club’s Academy from Le Havre at the age of just 16.
Pogba quickly progressed through the ranks, first impressing in the Under-18s and then swiftly moving upwards to the Reserves.
He first drew widespread attention as part of the Youth Cup side that achieved the club’s unprecedented 10th success in 2011, playing in both legs of that year’s final against Sheffield United.
The following season, he was granted a first-team debut under Sir Alex Ferguson, in a 3-0 League Cup win away at Leeds United.

But in the summer of 2012, due to strong competition for places at Old Trafford, Pogba joined Italian giants Juventus.
He quickly became a success in Juventus, helping the club to lift four consecutive Serie A titles and a couple of Coppa Italias.
However, in 2016, he returned to Old Trafford, for a then world-record fee of 105million euros (£89million).
The 29-year-old, a World Cup winner with France in 2018, will leave United on a free transfer for the second occasion, with a return to Juve potentially on the cards.
Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester City are other clubs to have been linked with him in recent months.
