Pogba returns to Man Utd squad for Watford fixture after recovering from injury

Paul Pogba is part of the Manchester United travelling 

squad for this weekend's fixture versus Watford after 

recovering from illness and injury.

The French midfielder was spotted by MEN's 

photographers among the United players to board a 

plane from Manchester Airport's private terminal on 

Saturday afternoon. They will stay over in Watford 

ahead of Sunday's 2pm kick off against the Hornets.

Nemanja Matic was also pictured travelling amid 

speculation that the Serbian midfielder could leave in 

January. Youngsters Brandon Williams and Mason 

Greenwood are among the 20-man squad but there's no 

place for James Garner, Angel Gomes or Tahith Chong. 

Phil Jones is also absent, as is Diogo Dalot who played 

for the Under-19s at Leigh on Friday night. Marcos Rojo, 

Eric Bailly and Timothy Fosu-Mensah remain injured.

If Pogba features, it would be his first United 

appearance since September 30th in the 1-1 Old 

Trafford draw with Arsenal.

United squad:

Goalkeepers: David de Gea, Sergio Romero, Lee Grant

Defenders: Luke Shaw, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, 

Ashley Young, Victor Lindelof, Brandon Williams, Axel 

Tuanzebe, Harry Maguire.

Midfielders: Jesse Lingard, Paul Pogba, Fred, Scott 

McTominay, Andreas Pereira, Nemanja Matic.

Forwards: Daniel James, Mason Greenwood, Anthony 

Martial, Marcus Rashford.
