United boss Jose Mourinho and his staff want the 24-year-old to take a mini break prior to beginning his recovery.

The ex-Juventus ace is waiting for a second scan on his injury to determine the full extent of his lay-off.

Mourinho has been left furious his situation after another hamstring injury to one of his Red Devils stars.

But Pogba will be given time-off to go on holiday to rest and recover during the upcoming international break.

An Old Trafford source said: "Paul is being given some time off before he steps up his rehab from a hamstring injury.

"He has another scan soon, but the injury has to settle down first and then a full assessment can be made.

"He will be allowed to head off on holiday during the international break and then return for a comeback to action."

Mourinho is angry with Pogba at present and blames him for ignoring advice over his long-standing hamstring issues.
