Ole Gunnar Solskjaer Says He Wouldn't Risk Paul Pogba on AZ Alkmaar Astroturf

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has said he wouldn't risk Paul Pogba against AZ Alkmaar on Thursday even if the midfielder was fit due to the artificial pitch they'll be playing on.

The UEFA Europa League Group L fixture has been moved to Cars Jean Stadium in The Hague after a partial roof collapse at their usual home venue, the AFAS Stadium in Alkmaar, Netherlands.

Pogba, 26, has played the full 90 minutes in each of United's last two games, but Rob Dawson of ESPN FC reported the Frenchman aggravated his recent ankle injury during Monday's 1-1 draw at home to Arsenal.
