Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has urged Ruben Amorim to give Paul Pogba a chance at Manchester United.
The France mieldfieder become a free agent after terminating his Juventus contract since last year
Insight Media reported that Pogba’s career took a significant setback in February 2024 when he was handed a four-year doping ban.
However, after appealing to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), his suspension was reduced to 18 months.
With his ban nearing its end and Pogba was cleared to return to training in January and ready to be playing professional matches again in March, there is hints of a possible Manchester United comeback emerging through Social Media last month.
The 2018 World Cup winner was seen wearing a Red Devils kit in cartoon form alongside Ivorian winger Amad Diallo.
However, former Manchester United defender, Rio Ferdinand are among those backing Pogba to make a return to Old Trafford, he insisted that Ruben Amorim can give France international an offer to train with the squad
During the latest episode of Rio Ferdinand Presents on YouTube, the former United defender said: “You’d like to think he would [be going somewhere]. Surely he’s got to go somewhere. Pogba at United? I’d go come in and train with us and let’s see what you’ve got. I’d do that. I would’ve done that already. I’d say come in and get fit and let’s have a little look.”
Pogba returned to Old Trafford for a second spell from Juventus in 2016, and his comeback was famously announced in a video featuring British rapper Stormzy, who was seen wearing a United jersey with Pogba’s name on the back.
Ferdinand humorously suggested that Stormzy could be preparing another verse for a new Pogba unveiling video in case a return materialises.
“Stormzy could be doing a little verse for the video now,” he joked.
With his playing ban nearing an end, Pogba is expected to make a decision on his next destination in the coming months. Whether that involves a return to Old Trafford remains to be seen.
