Pogba Brothers About To Make History When Manchester United Face St Etienne In Europa League

Being related to the world’s most expensive player can get a little bit annoying, especially when you are also a footballer living in his shadow. This week Florentin Pogba will come up against his brother.

Not only is Paul Pogba the world’s most expensive footballer he’s also one of the most well-known. The United midfielder is a marketing man’s dream.

This week the dabbing midfielder with the ever changing hair and his own emoji will come face to face with brother Florentin when Manchester United face St Etienne in the Europa League on Thursday.

And the pair will make history as it will be the first time that Paul has faced either of his brothers in a match. He’s also never faced Florentin’s twin Mathias who plays for Sparta Rotterdam.Image result for florentin pogba

Speaking to the Guardian about playing against his brother the 26 year old defender said:

“I watched the draw and, when I saw who we got, my first reaction was ‘Yes, that’s a dream that’s going to be fulfilled’.

“We used to play every day and hope that one day all three of us would play together in a professional match.

“That was the biggest dream. We haven’t managed it yet but having two of us together on the pitch is already good.

“We’ve been having fun about it ever since the draw, sending messages like ‘Watch out, the match is getting closer’ and so on.”

It could be a special moment when the two Pogba’s meet on Thursday.

Who will be celebrating come the end of the match?
