Old Trafford was electric tonight after an unexpected revelation shook the football world.
Manchester United’s new head coach, Ruben Amorim, made headlines with a powerful public plea to bring back none other than Paul Pogba.
Speaking passionately at a press conference, Amorim left no doubt about his intentions: he wants Pogba back at United this season, calling the Frenchman a missing piece in the club’s struggling midfield.
Amorim’s comments were as bold as they were emotional. “I want him—Pogba—back in this midfield. Old or young, he has exactly what we’ve been missing. Experience, leadership, fight,” Amorim stated directly from Old Trafford.
“What he brings can’t be replaced, and having him train alongside the young lads would be massive—not just for me, but for the entire team. This isn’t just a personal request… I’m asking as the manager. I need him here this season. If we’re serious about competing, then bring him back. No more delays.”
This moment marked the first time a Manchester United manager has openly called for Pogba’s return since the Frenchman left the club in 2022 after a turbulent and highly debated second stint.
While Pogba’s time at United had its highs and lows, few can deny his raw talent and ability to impact a game.
Amorim’s insistence suggests that he believes Pogba’s value goes beyond just footballing skills—he sees him as a mentor and motivator who can influence younger players like Kobbie Mainoo, Mason Mount, and potentially João Neves if United complete his signing.
Insiders close to the club are reporting that negotiations with Pogba’s representatives may soon be on the horizon.
Juventus, Pogba’s current club, is said to be open to a possible transfer, especially in light of the midfielder’s continued injury problems.
With Juve reportedly keen to reduce their wage bill, they may not stand in the way of a potential exit.
Given INEOS’s preference for more calculated financial decisions, a free or low-fee move for Pogba could be a tempting proposition.
Amorim’s unexpected declaration feels like a turning point—not just in United’s transfer strategy, but in their effort to re-establish identity, leadership, and grit within the squad.
Pairing Pogba with talents like Bruno Fernandes and Mainoo could potentially revive the club’s midfield dominance.
Whether fans agree with the idea or not, one thing’s for certain: Pogba returning to the Theatre of Dreams is no longer just fantasy—it’s now a real possibility.
