Man Utd news: The most important case Ole Gunnar Solskjaer must do this summer

Jamie Redknapp has highlighted the most crucial contract that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has to make to transform his Manchester United team this summer.

The former Liverpool midfielder, Redknapp, said that a half central and a half back should be priorities, as Solskjaer strives to make his team's title contenders.

But there is one player among all the others that the boss of United must make sure to have on board – and this player is Paul Pogba, said Redknapp.

He said that getting a spot in the top four would ensure the £ 89 million midfielder stays at Old Trafford. But the danger hides in the form of Real Madrid, which could prove to be too tempting for the France star Pogba with Zinedine Zidane in the heat of the moment.

"The most important job that Solskjaer can do this summer is to keep Paul Pogba," Redknapp said in his Daily Mail article.

"A few months ago, when Pogba was inspiring the amazing rebirth of United under Solskjaer, the future of the midfielder did not seem doubtful.

"The return of Zinedine Zidane to Real Madrid has changed the game.Zidane does not hide his admiration for his French compatriot, declaring Saturday:" I know him personally. He brings a lot and few players bring as much as him. & # 39;

"Pogba himself stated that he would be open to the Bernabeu once his stay in Manchester ended.

"He might think that this summer is the right time to leave." Not to qualify for the Champions League does not prevent United from attracting the best players, but could convince Pogba to leave. appalling, Madrid seems badured of a place at the first table of Europe next season ".

Zidane has already said about Pogba: "If, one day, it is possible that he wants to leave, after his experience at United, why does not he want to come to Madrid?"

But Redknapp said Solskjaer could do one more thing to keep Pogba at Old Trafford: make this player his captain.

He said, "If United holds it, it must make it feel like it's central to the future of the club." I've already explained that they should appoint him captain and , with Captain Antonio, ready to leave, it's the perfect time to give the armband to Pogba. "
