Pogba officially leaves Man United | Breaking News

Manchester United have announced that midfielder Paul Pogba will leave the club at the end of June, upon the expiry of his contract.

Pogba has enjoyed a long association with United, having joined the club’s Academy from Le Havre at the age of just 16.

He quickly progressed through the ranks, first impressing in the Under-18s and then swiftly moving upwards to the Reserves.

The French international first drew widespread attention as part of the Youth Cup side that achieved the club’s unprecedented 10th success in 2011, playing in both legs of that year’s final against Sheffield United.

The following season, he was granted a first-team debut under Sir Alex Ferguson, in a 3-0 League Cup win away at Leeds United.

But in the summer of 2012, due to strong competition for places at Old Trafford, Pogba joined Italian giants Juventus.

He quickly became a success in Piedmont, helping La Vecchia Signora lift four consecutive Serie A titles and a couple of Coppa Italias.

However, in 2016, he made the emotional decision to return to Old Trafford, in a bid to continue the nascent United career he had begun in that breakthrough season of 2011/12.
