Manchester United set for huge Paul Pogba blow in the next few weeks
By Bence Bocsak
Manchester United will face another Pogba challenge.
For almost a decade, Paul Pogba has periodically been an enigma at Manchester United. The Red Devils have tried to keep the volatile midfielder at bay but have found it impossible. Pogba lives in a world of his own and often that can be a benefit but on a few occasions it can be to his detriment.
The Frenchman strives to be the best. He has the right mentality on and off the pitch. However, like any fallible human, he also has a life outside of football and that is almost frowned upon in the sporting world.
Paul Pogba has been heavily criticised for his shenanigans off the field, but they are nothing extraordinary. Yes he is privileged to play football but it doesn’t mean he is not allowed to enjoy his life too. The Frenchman has done nothing out of order or insidious to harm his teammates.

Initially as a youngster, Paul Pogba left people scratching their heads because of his undoubted talent. Yet at the time the Red Devils starting eleven was littered with world-class midfielders and there was no place for the Frenchman in the first team.
He left for pastures new only to return as the club’s record signing a few years later.
Now on his second coming at the hallowed Theatre of Dreams, he has left people scratching their heads with his inconsistent performances.
Pogba struggled to adjust to Jose Mourinho rigid defensive structure, and found it difficult to accustom to the Portuguese’s system. Under Solskjaer the Frenchman has started to blossom, but has often find life difficult with the players around him.
At times, Paul Pogba has been the victim of steep expectations. The fans almost want him to do everything on the field but such a feat is not feasible for a mere human.
At the same time, the Frenchman has been linked with a move away from Old Trafford too. Though rumours have stayed dormant over the past few months with the suspension of the football and the potential financial crisis that is about to enshroud the world.
Nonetheless, there are now new emerging reports about Paul Pogba’s departure yet again.
According to French outlet L’Equipe via Sport Witness, Real Madrid’s Zinedine Zidane is desperate to land the midfielder and will ‘attack’ again in the coming weeks to secure Paul Pogba’s services.
The news will be especially bitter for fans since Paul Pogba has just started to thrive under his new midfield partner Bruno Fernandes at Old Trafford.
