Man Utd boss Solskjaer reveals new Pogba setback

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits Paul Pogba is struggling to make Monday's clash with Arsenal.

Pogba aggravated an ankle injury in United's Carabao Cup draw with League OneRochdale, in which Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side scraped through on penalties.

“The situation is he finished the game, 90 minutes, which was fantastic, but he got a knock to his ankle which is very swollen," said Solskjaer.

"So it was better not to go there with the team and he's in a race for Monday. But that's the way it is.

“Luke's back in training today, so let's see how he is. He's getting there so let's see how he reacts the next couple of days.

“He's been working really hard, so we hope to see him before international break."
