The player’s agent, Brazilian Rafaella Pimanta, confirmed in a statement to “ESPN” that Pogba will not be participating in the World Cup owing to injury.
Prior to the start of the season last year, Pogba sustained a cartilage injury, making him unable to attend the game.
It should be noted that France, the reigning World Cup champion, is grouped with Australia, Denmark, and Tunisia in the 2022 World Cup.
The official withdrawal of the French national squad from the World Cup has been called “a devastating blow.”
