But Pogba is now targeting a stunning return against champions Chelsea on November 5 following a successful rehabilitation period in Miami.

The France international has been sorely missed by Jose Mourinho, with United yet to win a Premier League fixture in October.

And with rivals Manchester City already five points clear, the Red Devils can’t afford any more slip-ups when Tottenham visit Old Trafford tomorrow afternoon.

Pogba has scored two goals in six appearances this season while forging a rock-solid midfield partnership with new anchorman Nemanja Matic.

But there is further good news for United’s fans, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic also close to making a stunning first-team return.

The veteran striker suffered a career-threatening knee injury late last season.
