Manchester United’s Paul Pogba joins up with France camp after using Chelsea’s ‘celebrity’ barber


RED DEVILS star Paul Pogba was in the stands for his team’s friendly as he nears a return from injury.

The Frenchman has been out since September but was in attendance at the Stade de France.

In his typical blase style, Pogba showed off a bright pink mohawk hairstyle, fashioned by ‘‘celebrity’ barber Ahmed Alsanawi.

Alsanawi is the owner of ‘A Star Barbers’, cutting the hair of Premier League footballers including Chelsea’s Eden Hazard and Manchester City full-back Benjamin Mendy.

Though he has since been banned from the club’s plush Surrey HQ in a row over image rights for cashing in on his famous customers.

Pogba was recorded embracing Atletico Madrid’s Antoine Griezmann in a video posted to the striker’s Twitter page.

Griezmann has long been a target of United, as they look to give number nine Romelu Lukaku a strike partner.

Pogba, 24, just missed out on a place in the Manchester United squad during their 1-0 loss to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge last weekend.

The flamboyant playmaker will hope to return for the Red Devils’ clash with Newcastle at Old Trafford next week.

United expect the £89m star to be back before Christmas.

United fans were calling on their club to sign Griezmann after watching the video he posted on social media.

Atleti will want to keep hold of their star striker who scored 16 league goals for his side last season.
