Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba will remain at Old Trafford until next summer as it would be difficult to organise such a high-profile transfer in January, his agent clarifies.

Mino Raiola had said earlier that the 27-year-old was "unhappy" at United and needed to change teams "in the next transfer market" to reignite his career.

AllNews reported earlier of Pogba denying any move away from Old Trafford as the World cup winner seems poised to stay at the Manchester club for now.

"I was talking about next summer," Raiola clarified. "When it comes to Pogba in England, they are sensitive, perhaps too sensitive.

"It's very difficult to see big clubs making these kinds of transfers in January. We will see what happens next summer."

Pogba, who joined from Juventus for 89 million pounds ($118.59 million) in 2016, has featured in nine Premier League matches this season, starting only six.

His contract runs out in June 2022.
