Man Utd news: Paul Pogba lifts lid on harrowing incident that saw World Cup medal stolen
Paul Pogba - World Cup winners' medal stolen
Manchester United and France star reveals all about 'scary' ordeal for his family.
Manchester United star Paul Pogba says he has had his World Cup winners' medal stolen in a recent burglary at his home.
While Pogba was playing for Man Utd in their Champions League defeat to Altetico Madrid, his home was broken into while his children slept in their beds.
Speaking to L'Equipe, Pogba has revealed more details and has lifted the lid on the mental affects it has had upon his family.
"There were jewels from my mother [that were stollen], my world champion medal," Pogba said.
"What scared me the most was that my two children were at home with the nanny during this incident.
"She overheard everything, called my wife and security, then locked herself with the boys in a room.
"For several days, she was shocked. The main thing is that my children are well."
Pogba gave the interview whilst away on international duty with France, who will face Ivory Coast and South Africa in friendlies.
As well as the burglary, Pogba is facing uncertainty over his future given he will be a free agent this summer, and he is hoping the international break can prove a healthy distraction.
"This break gives me a real breath of fresh air," he said.
"I want to have playing time to come back in top form at the club. Wearing this jersey, representing my country, is more than ever a source of pride."
