Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer plans to bench Paul Pogba for tonight's Champions League clash with Istanbul Basaksehir.

The French midfielder, 27, gave away the match-winning penalty with a rash challenge on Hector Bellerin against Arsenal at the weekend.

The Sun says Solskjaer plans to start Pogba from the bench tonight.

Ahead of tonight's Group H clash, Solskjaer said: “Paul is a fit lad.

"He knows in that exact instance he could have dealt with it better, and he held his hand up.

“Every player is frustrated with himself and disappointed after a defeat.

“We need consistency from every one of our players, that's what we want.

"Paul has been going through a difficult period with an injury last season and Covid now.

“He's working up to full fitness. We've seen plenty of positives lately and hopefully that continues."
