If he's not going to feature in Utd this coming season then I hope it's somewhere good on loan and somewhere he'll play regularly.
Although this story seems to have come from the Fail so it may be just speculative at best anyway.

Zlatan has apparently announced in a Swedish post-match interview that Pogba has signed. I guess it makes sense that he'd have insider knowledge considering him and Pogba have Raiola as their agent...as does Mkhitaryan funnily enough.

Always good when an agent has majority stake holder in the first team squad. Never causes any power plays or disturbance what so ever. Because as we all know agents priority is the football being played on the pitch.

Shit about Schweinsteiger, that'd be two of my favourite international players signing in consecutive seasons and neither working out then. Gutting. I still think he would have a role to play this year, he was decent in the Euros. But definitely looks like he's out the door.

Even though we'll probably never know the truth, there seems to be some narrative about him spending perhaps longer than necessary in Germany (getting treatment for knees being the necessary), when he could have been attending matches and being around the place generally even though he was on huge wages, which apparently pissed off some of the squad.
I think Bayern knew what they were doing at the time. They were getting rid of a very good footballer who was on the decline due to injuries. I think Guardiola even said that he hadn't considered him 100% match fit for a while when we signed him. There were moments of brilliance but in hindsight I don't think his legs could carry him through a full season these days unless there's some Ledley King level of cottonwooling placed on him and I don't think it'd be worth it with his wages and age. He made only 18 league appearances last season and a good handful of those were as a sub. He was out for almost the entirety of the second half of the season and admittedly I'd forgotten he was part of our squad at times, especially at the FA Cup Final.
I'm somewhat waiting for more stories to come out and say Utd and Jose are disrespectful assholes, and they might be... but it could also be that they've told him to find a new club because Jose doesn't see a fit for you and he's got to be frank and honest about it, Utd don't think it's financially viable especially when they're going after Pogba or all the above. And since Schweinsteiger is allegedly a top earner at £200k/week (thanks in part to the low amount of £6m it took to buy him), he'll say no because you'd be an idiot to relinquish such money and then the constructive dismissal tools are broken out such as making him train with the U21s, because there's no point keeping someone around who isn't allegedly 100% committed, someone who could disrupt the squad by being around and someone who is taking a hefty wage in return.
The only thing that is certain is it shouldn't have reached the public domain and it should have stayed within Utd.

Why 93? Why not 90 or 95?
Where do they get these values from?

Pogba's a mug. Imagine going back to a club that failed to spot your talent in the first place when they're in a worse position than when you left lol.
Mourinho has nowhere to hide now.
