Paul Pogba issues three-word message as triple Manchester United stance made clear

Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has issued a message on social media as speculation over his next transfer move continues to grow.

The Frenchman re-joined United in August 2016 for a then-world-record fee of £89million. However, his second stint at the club was marked by inconsistent performances and he left again on a free transfer in June 2022.

Pogba subsequently departed Juventus in November despite having his four-year ban reduced on appeal after testing positive for the banned substance DHEA. The 2018 World Cup winner is now set to return to football in March and has been linked with a move to several clubs, including his former team.

And he 31-year-old has now sent a message on Instagram as he keeps himself fit. "That feels good," he said, alongside a video of him training.

And three players, with links to the Reds, have shown their support for Pogba. Current captain Bruno Fernandes, former player Jesse Lingard and imminent new signing Patrick Dorgu have liked his latest post.

Pogba was asked last year if he missed United during his period away from football but admitted that he had not thought about the club in that way due to more pressing matters in his life.

“Truly, I had so many problems," he told Sky Sports. "I did not have time to think of Manchester United. I needed to get rid of all my problems and play.

“I watch Manchester United and I still have team-mates there. They are still one of the biggest clubs in the world but I wasn’t thinking about more stuff.”
