Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho thinks Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s humour is one of his major strengths and has described him as a “funny guy” following his move from Paris Saint-Germain. I don’t know where I want to go’.

United allowed Pogba to leave to Juventus in 2012, and have now been linked to a move to bring him back for a world-record fee.

Manchester United are interested in the 23-year-old, as Mourhino looks to add star talent to his squad though a deal for Pogba to return to Old Trafford is said to be “not out of the starting blocks”.

“Manchester United have a strong attack. It’s the midfield and the defence that needs strengthening”.

The young defender broke into the team under Louis van Gaal last season but has been sent to train with the reserves under Mourinho.

The BBC, Times and Guardian all report that Jose Mourinho may allow Ibrahimovic, 34, to sit out the trip despite having already had the minimum three-week rest period after Euro 2016, as required by Federation Internationale de Football Association.

The Swede played 122 games for the French capital side in four seasons, scored a remarkable 112 goals and has won trophies in four major leagues in Europe since leaving Malmo 17 years ago.

Chinn, who managed to take pictures with both Pogba and Ibrahimovic, has speculated that they spoke about Manchester United during their time together in the States. Winners are unsafe when they’re wounded. The Dutchman, who led United to FA Cup glory, paid the price for a perceived negative style of play and failure to finish in the Champions League places.
