Manchester United Rule Out Paul Pogba Return Despite Rio Ferdinand’s Plea
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

Paul Pogba’s future remains uncertain, but one thing is clear: Manchester United will not be offering him a third stint at the club. Despite Rio Ferdinand’s recent comments urging Ruben Amorim to bring Pogba back to Old Trafford, United have no plans to re-sign the French midfielder.

Pogba, 31, is currently serving an 18-month ban for testing positive for DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone), a compound that promotes the production of hormones in the body, including testosterone. His ban is set to expire in March, and he has been linked with several clubs, including those in Saudi Arabia, Major League Soccer, and the Premier League.Ferdinand, a former United defender, recently expressed his desire to see Pogba return to the club, suggesting that he could train with the team and prove his fitness.

However, according to The Athletic, United’s technical director, Jason Wilcox, has not been in contact with Pogba’s representatives, and there are no plans to discuss a potential return.Pogba’s representatives have a good relationship with Wilcox, but it appears that United are not interested in re-signing the midfielder. Instead, Pogba has been focusing on getting fit on his own terms, and he is expected to be ready to return to action in March.

Former United striker Louis Saha recently suggested that Pogba could be an attractive proposition for Premier League clubs, citing his talent and experience. However, it appears that United are not interested in re-signing the midfielder, despite his impressive credentials.Pogba’s future remains uncertain, but it is clear that he will not be returning to Manchester United. The French midfielder will have to look elsewhere for a new club, and it remains to be seen where he will end up.
