Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba could miss the remainder of 2021 after sustaining a thigh injury while on duty with France. Initial estimates from the France camp suggest the 28-year-old will be out for about six to eight weeks. This projection will take Pogba to the end of the year, at which point he can sign pre-contract terms with overseas clubs given his United deal runs out in June.
If he is out for eight weeks, he will miss two Champions League group games and up to 10 Premier League matches. United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is already without a number of players due to unforeseen injuries.
