Pogba Denies Retiring from French National Team
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Paul Pogba has denied reports that he has quit the French national team, branding the story as ‘unacceptable fake news’.
Reports in the Middle East claimed the Manchester United midfielder had stepped down from international football after comments from France’s President Emmanuel Macron alleging that Islam was the source of international terrorism.
Pogba was a key figure as France won the World Cup in 2018 and featured for his country in the recent international break - but reports on Sunday suggested he would never play for his country again.
But Pogba took to Instagram this morning to brand the claims 'fake news'.
