Man United fans are desperately calling for Paul Pogba to return to Old Trafford following the expiration of his ban from football.

The former Red Devils midfielder has not played since the 2023/24 campaign, making just two league appearances for Juventus before being found guilty of doping and given a four-year suspension.

However, with the 31-year-old's suspension being reduced to 18 months, he is now a free agent and eligible to return to professional football for the first time since September 2023.

Pogba already hinted about a potential Man United return when posting a cartoon image of himself next to star player Amad on social media, sending fans into a craze about the potential for his return.

With two spells at Old Trafford, making 226 appearances for United between 2016 and 2022 in his second stint, links are re-emerging between the two parties.

Ruben Amorim to win Man United fans back with Paul Pogba move

Ruben Amorim is under growing pressure at Man United, with his team struggling for any consistency on the pitch in the Premier League or the Europa League.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe is also suffering at Old Trafford thanks to his cost-cutting plans and bringing back a former star player could help alleviate both of their troubles this season.

Some may view this as a step backwards as the owners attempt to lead Man United into a new era, with new stadium plans emerging away from Old Trafford, but the current financial situation might make rebuilding the squad much more difficult.

Therefore, re-signing someone of Pogba's calibre could keep the likes of Kobbie Mainoo and Bruno Fernandes from leaving, showing what key figures are doing to push the club forward on the pitch.

Man United supporters want Paul Pogba reunion

One supporter has asked for "one last dance" for Pogba at Old Trafford while another believes United "need him to partner with Bruno [Fernandes]".

Many fans are desperate for the 31-year-old to return after three years away from the Red Devils, and with the player currently a free agent, it could be a cheaper deal than when he came to the club last time.
