Pogba is a heart disease of Manchester United in recent years, in fact, since the first half of 2020, Manchester United has been trying to renew Pogba's contract, but Pogba first tried to delay, and then offered a sky-high salary, and finally entered January 2022, Manchester United has no way to keep Pogba. Now United are well aware that Pogba is basically going to be on a free transfer at the end of the season, so they are also starting to consider a replacement for him.

Originally, United wanted to bring in West Ham's England international Declan Rice, but West Ham asked him for £120 million (140 million euros), which is too high for United, and the United management, including the new manager Lonnick, does not think Les can be worth so much money. So United chose to abandon Les and instead chose Napoli's Fabian Ruiz as a replacement for Pogba.

Ruiz has been at Napoli for 3 1/2 years and the 2019 Euro 2019 MVP winner is now one of the top midfielders in Serie A, making 18 appearances for Napoli in Serie A this season, scoring five goals and having three assists, making it a good candidate to replace Pogba. Moreover, the contracts between Napoli and Ruiz expire in 2023 and he will enter the contract year this summer, so Manchester United are ready to push down prices again at that time, and they hope to reach a deal with Napoli for around 40 million euros. Ruiz himself is also interested in traveling to Manchester United, and the probability of the deal succeeding is still very high.
