Carragher warns Man City against signing Man United star

Former Liverpool midfielder Jamie Carragher has warned Premier League leaders Manchester City that signing Paul Pogba on a free transfer from Manchester United would be a huge mistake.

Carragher went on to criticize the France international’s lack of work ethic, noting that the 29-year-old is set to leave Old Trafford at the end of the season.

Carragher warns Man City against signing Man United star

Pogba’s contract at Old Trafford expires at the end of the season, and reports in England suggest that the World Cup winner may be heading to United’s next-door neighbours, Manchester City.

Carragher believes the Frenchman’s work rate and discipline make him an unsuitable fit for Manchester City and has warned against the move.

“I wouldn’t go anywhere near him. [City] win the league every year, they get 95-100 points every year. He doesn’t work hard enough or as much as the other players,” said Carragher on Sky Sports.

Carragher added, “So he just starts now?” in response to the suggestion that Pogba might change and work harder under Guardiola. How come he wasn’t doing it for Manchester United? I’m referring to working hard.

“That’s a massive problem for me. He could do it… but he doesn’t want to… he just doesn’t work hard enough for a Pep Guardiola team.”

I will not extend and the adventure will come to an end in a few weeks. I will play my last game as Parc des Princes on Sunday,” Mbappe said in a video statement on X.

“It’s a lot of emotions. (For) many years I had the chance and great honour to be a member of the biggest French club, one of the best in the world which allowed me to travel here,” Mbappe added.

“It’s hard and I never thought it would be this difficult to announce that I will leave the country, France, the league and the Championship. But I think, I needed this, a new challenge after seven years.”
