Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has been ruled out of their Europa League trip to AZ Alkmaar.

Pogba is out of the tie due to a recurrence of a foot injury he picked up in August.

The Frenchman sustained the knock in the draw at Southampton at the start of the season and is yet to fully recover.

He played 90 minutes in both the Carabao Cup win over Rochdale and the Premier League draw with Arsenal in the past week but will not travel to Holland for Thursday's game.

A United statement said: "Following a specialist's opinion, Paul Pogba requires a period of further rest & conservative treatment for the foot injury he sustained in the game against Southampton in August."
