Paul Pogba is a highly-promising young French midfielder, who officially joined United on 6 October 2009.

Pogba, who is also an accomplished performer in defence, joined the Reds from his previous club, French Ligue 2 outfit Le Havre, in a much-commented-on move.

He made his debut for United's Under-18s in a 2-1 defeat to Crewe Alexandra at Gresty Road on 10 October 2009. Although on the losing side, it was an eye-catching first outing in a Reds shirt. 

The teenager hails Lagny Sur Marne, on the outskirts of Paris, and has been a regular for France's

Under-16 national side.
