Manchester United are eager to kick off talks with Paul Pogba over a new contract.
ESPN says United are fearful of losing Pogba on a free transfer and will initiate talks regarding a new deal.
The France World Cup winner is entering the final 12 months of his contract and, without a new deal, would be free to discuss a move with clubs outside of England from January ahead of a free transfer next summer.
While there has been questions regarding his future, no firm contact has been received from any of Europe's major clubs.
United are now pushing Pogba's camp to discuss new terms with the summer transfer window now open.
