Manchester United star Paul Pogba hopes to be back in action before Christmas.

Pogba is still more than three weeks away from returning to action after his injury, he's revealed.

He'll be in plaster for another 10 days, and then face at least two weeks of rehabilitation.

“I will still be under plaster for 10 days," Pogba told RMC Sport. “After, I still have two weeks of rehabilitation."

Speaking after United's latest defeat to Bournemouth, Pogba admitted that it's tough to watch your team lose while you're injured.

“It is the worst. After, it is not easy to see my team-mates go to training or on the field.

“You train inside, you want to return to help your team but when you are injured it is not easy [psychologically]. The most important thing is to heal properly."
