Former West Ham player Dimitri Payet urged Paul Pogba to move to Marseille. The midfielder is set to make a decision about his future after returning to play in the new year.
Details. Payet, Pogba's former France teammate, is trying to convince him that Marseille would be the perfect place for him to regain his best form.
"Like all Marseille fans, it makes me dream. I worked with him in the national team, and he has spoken with other former Marseille players. He knows where he's going. He has already played here, and it could be beneficial for him to play in a club like Marseille," said Payet.
Reminder. Paul Pogba will be able to resume playing in March after his initial four-year doping ban was reduced to 18 months. Manchester City is interested in the French midfielder, but the player is in no rush to begin negotiations due to his past at Manchester United.
