PAUL POGBA has left Manchester United fans scratching their heads with a cryptic post on Instagram.

The French midfielder, 28, has been out of action since November, having picked up a nasty thigh injury while on international duty.

Pogba, who cost United £89million in 2016, is out of contract at Old Trafford at the end of the season.

For now, it's unclear if the 2018 World Cup winner will be leave on a free or sign a new contract under new boss Ralf Rangnick.

But with January 1 rapidly approaching, United and Pogba will have to make a decision – with foreign clubs able to kickstart pre-contract terms.

Ahead of a potentially career-defining month, Pogba has shared a cryptic message on his Instagram.

The France ace captioned a snap of him in what looks to be the back of a limousine, wearing a silver adidas tracksuit.

Pogba wrote: "Don't look at the problem, look at the solution."
