Paul Pogba's new agent insists he wasn't to blame for Manchester United failure

Pogba, 29, re-joined the Red Devils from Juventus for a world-record £89million transfer fee in August 2016. He was signed to bring Premier League and Champions League success back to the club but won just two trophies during an underwhelming six-year spell.
