New United boss Jose Mourinho has already acted quickly to bring in Eric Bailly, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Henrikh Mkhitaryan since arriving at the club, but Pogba remains the top target at Old Trafford.
Despite the season not kicking off until next month and Pogba still being on holiday, Mourinho will not wait to complete a deal for the France international.
“Jose Mourinho won’t wait until August, he wants it done now,” Stobart added.
Pogba, 23, scored one goal as France reached the final of Euro 2016 as the hosts, but he could not help Les Bleus win the trophy as Portugal claimed a 1-0 victory.
