Pogba has worn the number six shirt throughout his time at Old Trafford and he also wore it for three of his four seasons at Juventus.
However, the shirt is currently worn by Marco Verratti at PSG, a key player for Mauricio Pochettino's side.
The midfielder would surely be unwilling to give up the number, given he has had it since the 2015/16 season and also wears it for Italy.
