Manchester United have taken drastic measures to ban midfield maestro Paul Pogba from playing basketball during his healing process, according to reports.
The club are worried that the Frenchman’s antics on the court could cause further injuries to his hamstrings, with the 24-year-old currently sidelined for at least the next few weeks.
United have asked their boy to end his love of basketball for now, with medical staff scared he is at risk of ‘muscle strain, as well as stress impact on his knees and ankles’,
Mourinho has previously revealed that Pogba’s injury is ‘long-term’, after he limped off during Manchester United’s opening Champions League game against Basle.
Pogba, though, has since offered some hope to United’s supporters, posting a ‘Bruce Lee style’ workout on his Instagram page.
The Frenchman is at Manchester United’s training base at Carrington, working hard in the gym to regain full fitness in the coming weeks.
