Manchester United reveal duo set to leave club amid Newcastle United and West Ham transfer interest
and live on Freeview channel 276
Both players, who have been linked with a move to Newcastle United, will leave on a free transfer this summer.
Pogba joined Manchester United from Juventus for a club-record fee in 2016 but his second-stint at the club has failed to live-up to the high expectations following his move from Turin.

A move for Pogba would be highly-unlikely but it’s not a new rumour doing the rounds. Back in October, their former player Chris Waddle told the Sun that the Magpies could consider the midfielder this summer:
"Paul Pogba’s out of contract isn’t he?” Waddle said shortly after the Saudi-led takeover of the club was completed in October.
“Now people might say about Newcastle — but money talks. If they sell the dream about what we’re going to win and achieve, it might.” Waddle said.

However, it’s West Ham that have been made favourites to sign Lingard after he enjoyed a stunning spell on-loan at the London Stadium in 2021.
Newcastle United will undoubtedly be active in the transfer market this summer as the rumour-mill over potential arrivals picks up steam.
