France manager Didier Deschamps claims that Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba cannot be happy with his situation at Old Trafford.

France manager Didier Deschamps has claimed that Paul Pogba cannot be happy with where he finds himself at Manchester United.

The midfielder is struggling for starts over the likes of Fred and Scott McTominay and has only made appearances from the bench in United's last two matches.

Former Red Devils defender Phil Neville believes that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's decision to leave Pogba out of the first XI is "absolutely disgraceful", and Deschamps has now given his opinion on the situation.

Speaking at a press conference ahead of France's midweek friendly with Finland, Deschamps said: "Paul, I know him well and he knows the group well. He is in a situation with his club where he cannot be happy, neither with his playing time, nor with his positioning.

"He is not in his best period, he has had a series of injuries and the COVID-19 which has hit him quite hard. He needs to find his rhythm.

"The match he had to make last month was good and consistent despite a lack of pace. We cannot however say that he is fulfilled in what he does at his club.

"With me, there is no such concern, but I try to manage it too. When a player is in discomfort in his club, obviously, he is happy to play for the France team. He will tell me about his feelings and as I know him very well, it will go in a positive direction. Even if it is also up to him to make all his efforts."

Pogba has been included in the France squad for the upcoming November fixtures despite his domestic woes, with Les Bleus taking on Finland before crucial Nations League matches with Portugal and Sweden.
