Paul Pogba training: Man United training at local park

Although Paul Pogba training from home has been the major story of his time in lockdown, the World Cup-winning French star was recently spotted doing some outdoor drills with a few teammates at a regional park in Manchester. The 27-year-old Paul Pogba appeared to have overcome the longstanding issue with his ankle. Pogba's injuries during the 2019-20 season allowed him to make only 8 appearances for the Red Devils, with his last outing coming on Boxing Day (December 26, 2019) against Newcastle United. The Man United training session saw Pogba doing a few sprints along with the likes of Victor Lindelof, Anthony Martial and Andreas Pereira.
