Paul Pogba 'in talks' for shock move as KSI drops transfer hint on next club
@Source: mirror.co.uk
KSI has suggested Paul Pogba is “in talks” about a stint in the Baller League. The YouTuber has tipped the former Manchester United midfielder to make an appearance for the struggling N5 team, named after the postcode where his favourite team Arsenal play. League president KSI was asked to name who he would pick as a wildcard signing during coverage of Monday night’s action at the Copper Box Arena in Stratford, London. And with a smile on his face, KSI said: "Ooooh.... Pogba. He's a free agent. We do follow each other on socials and we are in talks." Then asked which team he thinks would be best suited to the France star, who has not signed for a club since returning from a drugs ban , KSI said N5, which is managed by the former Arsenal stars Robert Pires, Freddie Ljungberg and Jens Lehmann. "It depends on who he wants but I feel like a player of that calibre would have to play for like an N5, a team that is at the bottom," he said. Pogba, 32, has not played professionally since September 2023. In February of last year he was handed a four-year suspension after a drugs test showed increased levels of testosterone. The World Cup winner insisted he would "never knowingly or deliberately" dope and later had the ban reduced upon a successful appeal at the Court of Arbitration for Sport. However he is yet to sign with a new club since being cleared to return earlier this year despite being linked with a host of clubs, including in the Saudi Pro League and Major League Soccer. Talk of a third stint at Manchester United was swiftly shut down with the latest speculation linking him with a move to DC United . The Baller League is an indoor six-a-side competition running every Monday until June featuring a host of celebrities and former players. Matches comprise of two 15-minute halves with players paid £400 per appearance. John Terry , Gary Lineker , Alan Shearer and Micah Richards are among the other footballing legends signed up for management and coaching roles.
