“Leaving Manchester United Was My Biggest Regret… I Just Want One More Chance” — Paul Pogba’s Emotional Plea to Old Trafford
Paul Pogba has opened up in a deeply emotional message, revealing his biggest career regret — walking away from Manchester United.
In a heartfelt confession that’s stirred reactions from fans and pundits alike, the French midfielder admitted that leaving Old Trafford was a mistake he’s never been able to move past.
“My greatest mistake was leaving Manchester United. I wish they could grant me my only wish, because since I left, I’ve felt lost,” Pogba confessed. “All I want is to return… just one more chance to wear that red shirt again.”
After rejoining the Red Devils in 2016 amid huge fanfare, Pogba’s second spell at United was a mix of dazzling highs and frustrating lows.
He eventually left in 2022 for a second stint at Juventus, but injuries and a doping ban derailed his time in Italy.
Now, nearly three years later, the 32-year-old is speaking from a place of vulnerability, publicly acknowledging that he still sees Manchester United as home.
Fans are divided — some see this as a raw, redemptive moment from a misunderstood player; others question whether it’s a desperate attempt to salvage a fading career.
Still, Pogba’s message seems sincere: he isn’t seeking attention or headlines — he’s asking for forgiveness, and a final chance to make things right.
“I just want to feel that atmosphere again, give everything to the club I truly belong to. I always have.”
Whether Erik ten Hag and the United board will respond remains to be seen. But one thing is certain — Pogba’s words have reignited a powerful conversation around legacy, loyalty, and second chances.
