Published on October 28, 2019, Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba is unlikely to play again until December due to an ankle injury, manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has said.

France international Pogba last featured for United in their 1-1 Premier League draw with Arsenal on September 30.

Speaking after Manchester United's 3-1 win at Norwich City on Sunday, Solskjaer revealed that Pogba will be out for a while, saying, 'I don’t think we’ll see Paul before December. He’ll be out for a while.'

He added that Pogba needs time to fully recover from the injury, which affects his ankle.

With Pogba ruled out, Manchester United will have to rely on other players, including forward Anthony Martial, who made a scoring return against Norwich on his first Premier League start since August.

The win lifted United up to seventh in the table and they are next in League Cup action against Chelsea on Wednesday.
