Paul Pogba has wished his former Manchester United teammate Marcus Rashford all the best as the England international closes in on a move to Barcelona—although that isn’t a stance universally taken by Old Trafford alumni.
Pogba has played more games alongside Rashford than any other teammate in his senior career, sharing the pitch 187 times during the pair’s six years together in the club’s first team. The divisive French midfielder endured his own struggles under the weight of expectation at United before leaving for Juventus in 2022. After watching Rashford labour under the pressure which is ladled onto the shoulders of any academy graduate, Pogba couldn’t blame him for pushing to leave on loan.
