Paul Pogba to earn another £1m in wages out of Man Utd despite announcement midfielder is quitting on free transfer

PAUL POGBA is set to be paid more than £1million by Manchester United even after his exit was confirmed.

United announced the midfielder will leave the club when his contract expires at the end of the month.

But with four weeks left to go on his deal Pogba is set for one last bumper payday at Old Trafford.

The Frenchman reportedly earns £290,000 a week which means the Red Devils will have to fork out another £1.16m.

Pogba will not have to do anything to earn the money either and instead will be focused on picking his next club.

Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain are both linked with his signature but neither are likely to offer close to his current salary.
