Manchester United player Paul Pogba has discovered a new way to work on a calf injury. The midfielder posted a video of him dancing to some music as he steps up his recovery.
Pogba was injured in Manchester United’s 4-0 defeat to Liverpool and has already been ruled out from the rest of the season. He mentions that the new dance style is part of the recovery.
The French star is set to leave Old Trafford on a free transfer. He is yet to agree to new terms with the Red Devils and it is expected he will seek a move elsewhere.

FootballHe has enjoyed a mixed return of fortunes since rejoining United from Juventus in 2016. The 29-year-old has been instrumental in United winning the Europa League and the Carabao Cup under Jose Mourinho.
Some fans and pundits, however, have chastised him for failing to match his potential. Pogba has dropped some below-par performances with inconsistency his major undoing.
Top European clubs are set to line up for the World Cup winner. Paris Saint Germain and Real Madrid have in the past inquired about his availability but no offer has been tabled yet.
Sportsmole reports that PSG looks like a favourable destination for him given the struggles Mauricio Pochettino’s side has endured this season. Lionel Messi has had to drop in deep to create chances for the Ligue One champions.
A midfield pairing of Pogba and Marco Verratti could be crucial in PSG’s hunt for a first European silverware. Pogba has been played in diverse positions during his spell at United and can fit anywhere in the midfield.

Sports Brief has earlier reported that Pogba might not be the only one out of Manchester United. Defenders Phil Jones and Eric Bailly are also set to leave the club.
The duo doesn’t fancy their chances under new manager Erik Ten Hag and will look for other suitors elsewhere.
