Chris Waddle’s Travel Tips for Pogba’s Next Gig …

Paul Pogba’s in for a wild ride as he eyes his next stomping grounds after an extended vacation, courtesy of an 18-month doping ban. Chris Waddle, die-hard opinion-giver and ex-footie wizard, warned the Frenchman against running back to the rainy embraces of Manchester United.

Pogba’s return to the Premier League is about as likely as penguins sunbathing in Dubai, according to Waddle. The former England international suggests Pogba’s delicate talents are far better showcased in leagues that enjoy sipping espresso on leisurely afternoons—namely Italy or France. After all, his skills might enjoy the sun and a slower pace of game… not the British downpour sprinting as if they’re late for tea.

Rumor has it Pogba’s been eyeing clubs from Saudi to the US, with the French Riviera’s Marseille looking particularly shiny. Who wouldn’t want a slice of that sun-bathed lifestyle? Besides, Pogba’s been known to roam Miami’s beaches, so he could be tempted by the “kick a ball and chill on a beach” culture in Major League Soccer too. Whatever the choice, one thing’s for sure—Waddle’s checklist does not include another English downpour experience!
