Paul Pogba Likely To Miss World Cup Due To Knee Injury

 Juventus midfielder, Paul Pogba could miss the 2022 FIFA world Cup if he undergoes surgery on his knee after picking up an injury during a preseason training session.

He was in Los Angeles with the Bianconeri 

squad after his return to the club from

 Manchester United a few days ago. 

However, celebration were short-lived after 

the frenchman was diagnosed with a lesion 

of the lateral meniscus on his right knee and

 flew back to Italy. 

According to daily mail, there are two 

potential approaches to pogba's injury. Still, 

one could force him to miss out on the 

upcoming Qatar showpiece. 

He could get the meniscus removed, which 

will sideline him for 40 to 60 days, but that is

 generally done for younger players. 

The other option that Pogba has is to suture 

the lesion, which could force him out of 

action for 4 to 5 months, endangering his 

world Cup hopes significantly as the 

tournament kicks off in November. 

According to the football Italian, the 

frenchman will consult his medical staff 

before deciding. 

The problem has been nagging for Pogba for

 a few years now, causing several muscular

 issues during his time at Manchester United.

During his six years with the Premier league 

club, Pogba made 226 appearance and won 

two titles before returning to Juventus on a 

free transfer.

He's also an essential member france's 

squad. Notably, he scored in the final of the

2018 World Cup against Croatia, which Les

 Blues won. Naturally, coach Didier 

Deschamps will be watching his case closely.
