Manchester United boss Mourinho has been at odds with midfielder Pogba on a number of occasions during their working relationship in England.
Things came to a head earlier this season when Mourinho was seen firing a few words at Pogba in front of the cameras at open training.
But things appear to have calmed somewhat in recent weeks and there was seemingly mutual respect between the two today.
United held training at their Carrington base today and Pogba did his usual routine of greeting each staff member.
But while the last time the cameras were on him, he appeared to overlook Mourinho, this time the pair shook hands before France’s World Cup star walked off to join his team-mates.
Mourinho slaps Pogba on the back before turning back to his management staff as training gets underway.
Paul Pogba joined United in a then-world record £89m deal back in the summer of 2016 but Mourinho has struggled to get the best out of the midfielder.
He is set to play against his former club Juventus in the Champions League tomorrow (8pm).
United were without Romelu Lukaku and Diogo Dalot at training today – with the former a doubt for Wednesday night following injury.
Lukaku missed the weekend trip to Bournemouth and has not scored in his last nine United games.
Meanwhile, ex-United star Darren Fletcher has called for Paul Pogba to be allowed to play further up the field.
“I like to see him [Pogba] in the final third and creating things,” Fletcher said on Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football.
“He played for Juventus (on the left) and I spoke before about his connection with (Anthony) Martial.
“They’ve got a good relationship there and a good friendship – and they can dovetail quite easily.
“Pogba can easily drift out wide. He can take people on… also get in the box, he’s a big lad.
“A lot of people talk about (Marouane) Fellaini controlling the ball with his chest. Paul can do that.
“Paul can receive the ball on his chest in the final third of the pitch, get in the box and score headers.
“I’d love to see him with a bit more freedom to express himself.”
Fletcher also revealed why Pogba was not kept on at United as a reserve player in his youth.
“I think at that time, we didn’t feel like he was disciplined enough for the reserve team to be playing there,” Fletcher said.
“So to then jump to be playing for the first team in an important game, people could see why.
“I think he sees himself as a central midfielder where we see him more as an attacking midfielder, who can get in areas and be a match-winner.”
