Manchester United: Paul Pogba back in training ahead of Tottenham match
Manchester United’s dynamic midfielder, Paul Pogba, is back in training following a six-week layoff caused by his hamstring injury he picked up against Basel in the Champions League.
Pogba wasted no time getting back to his regular shenanigans with Jesse Lingard at Manchester United’s AON Training center, posting this video to his Instagram.

And with reports coming out that Pogba has resumed training ahead of Saturday’s huge clash with Tottenham, United fans couldn’t be more please. Pogba was the heart and soul of the team before going down hurt, and the Red Devils have suffered in his absense.
The match this weekend will have huge repercussions. Both teams are sit join-second in the table, but Manchester United haven’t had back to back defeats to Tottenham in nearly three decades. Something has to give.

Having Pogba back for even just a half against Spurs would be massive. There are few players in the world with the unique do-it-all skill set that Pogba possesses.
The Frenchman has taken his recovery very seriously, as he traveled to Miami for certain rehab treatments.
