Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed that the agent of Paul Pogba has 'become a bit difficult' in contract talks with Manchester United.
The Red Devils' chief has confirmed that they would like to keep the 18-year-old midfielder, who joined in controversial circumstances from Le Havre in 2009, at Old Trafford beyond the end of his contract in summer 2013.
However, with money bags neighbours Manchester City and Inter Milan reportedly interested, Pogba has so far snubbed the offer put on the table by United.
And, Ferguson feels the player's agent has played a part in the club's inability to come to an agreement with the youngster, who made three substitute appearances during United's run to the quarter-finals of the Carling Cup.
He said: "Pogba has an agent who has obviously become a bit difficult.
"But we are negotiating and we want the boy to stay.
"If he doesn't want to there is not a lot you can do about it. You just hope he gets the right advice.
"We have an option on his contract so in that respect there is not a great emergency. But if he wants to be a Manchester United player he knows what to do."
