  • Story Text: The ankle injury on which Paul Pogba requires surgery is a new one, said Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on Friday (January 3).
    Speaking at a news conference ahead of United's FA Cup clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers, Solskjaer took a couple of questions on the Frenchman before asking reporters to switch topics.
    Pogba has featured in just eight Premier Legaue games this season because of ankle problems. After returning against Watford and Newcastle, he missed United's win over Burnley and their defeat at the hands of Arsenal, and has been linked with a move away from the club.
    Solskjaer told reporters that Pogba was likely to miss three to four more weeks.
