Mourinho unhappy with Pogba, but why?
Jose Mourinho has finally waded into Paul Pogba’s incessant image and commercial work and as told the midfielder to concentrate more on his football instead.
Pogba has extensive sponsorship agreements including a huge deal with sports goods giants Adidas, and his twitter emoji was recently launched. The midfielder can also be seen on social media either singing or dancing, but it was the emoji episode that tipped the balance for Mourinho, according to the Mirror.
The United boss is believed to have told Pogba to cut down on his commercial activities, warning the France star he was prepared to drop him if he felt they were affecting his form.
The France midfielder promoted his own emoji before the draw with Liverpool at Old Trafford in January and regularly sports eye-popping new hairstyles, and was criticized for promoting himself just before a crucial game, which saw him post an average performance, and now Mourinho wants him to focus on his football.
Although, Mourinho has stoutly defended him in public in the face of growing criticism, claiming the pundits are jealous of his wealth, but it is understood he has spoken to the player privately and has asked him to curtail his social media antics.
