Manchester United’s Pogba to Undergo Ankle Surgery, Sidelined for Several WeeksManchester United’s Pogba to Undergo Ankle Surgery, Sidelined for Several Weeks Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba is set to undergo ankle surgery and will be sidelined for several weeks, the club has announced. The French international has been struggling with an ankle injury since August and has missed the Red Devils’ last two matches. The club initially hoped to manage the injury conservatively, but recent scans have revealed the need for surgery. Pogba is expected to be out for between four and six weeks, ruling him out of a crucial period for Manchester United. The club faces a busy schedule in October, including matches against Manchester City, Liverpool, and Tottenham Hotspur. The absence of Pogba is a major blow to United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. The 28-year-old is a key figure in the team’s midfield, and his creativity and energy will be missed. United will now have to find a way to replace Pogba in the starting lineup. Donny van de Beek, Fred, and Scott McTominay are the most likely candidates to step into the midfield role. The news of Pogba’s surgery will also be a concern for France coach Didier Deschamps. The World Cup is scheduled to take place in Qatar in November, and Pogba is a key member of the French squad. Deschamps will now have to monitor Pogba’s recovery closely and hope that he is fit in time for the tournament. Meanwhile, Manchester United will continue to assess Pogba’s progress and provide updates on his recovery in the coming weeks.
