Pogba's struggles explained by fellow World Cup winner as Man Utd star seeks to rediscover 'appetite' for success

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba is yet to rediscover his “big appetite” for success at club level after expiring a summer of international glory, says fellow World Cup winner Frank Leboeuf.

The 25-year-old helped France to land football’s biggest prize on Russian soil, with Les Bleus claiming a second global crown 20 years on from their first.

Pogba played a leading role for Didier Deschamps’s side, with questions of his domestic form replaced by plaudits of his displays in the colours of his country.

A key man for United was charged with the task of replicating those heroics after returning to Old Trafford, but he has struggled to do so and sparked talk of rifts with Jose Mourinho and potential big-money moves elsewhere.
