Paul Pogba injury: Manchester Unites vs Chelsea

Paul Pogba injury Manchester Unites vs Chelsea

According to new reports, Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba is not expected to regain full fitness until early December, and he won’t be featuring for his side when they clash with both Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea in the premier league.

Pogba picked a hamstring injury during Man Utd’s Champions League group stage game against Basel on September-12th, and his manager has been reluctant to give a certain date for his return.

But the Old Trafford club felt the Frenchman could make a return in November after deciding against surgery.

The player himself has been working quite hard in America to get back to fitness and has been posting his training videos on social media which suggests he is getting better.

His side will play Chelsea on the 5th of November at Stamford Bridge, but the Daily Star made it known that the France international won’t be back before the game and that he will only be able to return in December.

Man United will play four games in 11 days before Christmas, and Mourinho will be desperate to have Pogba fit again and back in the team.

Should Pogba make his return in December, it means his injury will have kept him out of action for three months, and he won’t be able to play against Chelsea.

Pogba’s absence from the clash against Chelsea is a big boost for the premier league champions to beat Jose Mourinho’s side at Stamford Bridge.
