Paul Pogba teases return from injury in training session
Manchester United will have to make plans for life without Paul Pogba as Mohamed Sissoko is convinced the France international is getting ready to force a move away from Old Trafford this summer. Pogba has missed most of the season for United so far with speculation growing that his future lies away from United.
The midfielder’s agent, Mino Raiola, has further stoked the fire in recent months with multiple comments in the media about Pogba potentially moving in the near future.
He is set to return to first-team training this week with an eye on making his comeback at some point this month.
With United closing in on a top-four finish, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will no doubt be hoping the re-introduction of Pogba into the first team will help their cause.
But given all the noise surrounding Pogba’s future, his second coming at United may soon be coming to an end.

And Sissoko, who announced his retirement from football earlier this year, believes the 26-year-old is holding out for a return to Juventus in the summer.
“I think he will return to Juventus,” Sissoko told the Daily Mail.
“He will come back due to situations that have arisen.
“Everything suggests that he will abandon Manchester and England and Juventus is a club that knows him and where he is loved and respected unconditionally.”
Sissoko is well known in the Premier League, having become a fan-favourite at Anfield during his three years at Liverpool.
He left to join Juventus in 2007 after the Italian outfit returned to Serie A following the 2006 Italian football scandal.
The Turin-based club have since re-established themselves as one of Europe’s elite clubs with Cristiano Ronaldo now leading the charge in Europe.
And Sissoko believes his two former clubs are best equipped to win the Champions League this season.
